This carefully researched book tells the story of the Dugan Glass Company (1904-1913) and the Diamond Glass Ware Company (1913-1931) -- businesses that occupied the former Northwood Company factory. Some patterns, previously attributed to other firms, are here correctly assigned to Dugan/Diamond. The authors describe and illustrate Dugan/Diamond's significant Carnival glass production, as well as Stretch glass and items of interest to Depression-era collectors. A 12-page 1998-1999 Value Guide is now available for just $5.00 (free with book purchase). It has new information and 36 items in full color made at the Dugan/Diamond factory.
Collectors will find a bounty of information on the origins of Carnival Glass and priceless information on identifying pieces by shape, base colors, and manufacturers, including Fenton, Dugan, Imperial, Northwood, and more.

The Dugan Glass Company and its successor, the Diamond Glass Company of Indiana, Pennsylvania, were among the largest producers of the glass we now call "carnival". They were the largest producers of the popular peach opalescent carnival glass, yet very little was known about them until quite recently. Now for the first time ever, there is a source of information that focuses exclusively on the carnival glass produced by these two "sleeping giants" of the glassware industry. This long-awaited and much needed book features nearly 300 pieces of Dugan and Diamond carnival glass, shown in full color, including many one-of-a-kind rarities. The many illustrations from the wholesale catalogs of the period and from the only known Dugan factory catalog offer some unique insights into the marketing and distribution of this beautiful glassware. Also included is an in-depth look at the production of the colors and shapes made for all of the known carnival glass patterns to come from these two, firms. A special section featuring the most complete listing on Dugan/Diamond reproductions and reproduction trademarks ever compiled should be especially helpful to the beginning or advanced collector or dealer. A complete value guide for all known patterns, colors, and shapes is included.
