ISBN: 9781734161939
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
Originally published in 2007 and out of print since 2012, this volume was the first complete history of L. E. Smith, made possible by unprecedented access to factory records, catalogs, photographs, and the company "morgue" - thousands of sample pieces from 100 years of production. It is now available from the Glass Flakes Press, scanned from the original work with minor updates and corrections. In addition to the extensive history, it includes sections identifying all production and many experimental colors, including carnival glass, milk glass, and other opaque colors. Approximately one third of the book is devoted to the major patterns, including Mount Pleasant, Heritage (including many reproductions from the McKee -Tec patterns), Dominion, Simplicity (Smith's answer to Viking's Epic), Moon and Star, Hobnail, Daisy and Button, and many more. The remainder of the book covers specialized products: ruby-stained souvenir ware, candy containers, bedroom and bathroom glassware, animals and covered animals dishes, candlesticks, and punch bowls. A general index, pattern number index, and visual index are included.

Alcohol in Popular Culture
Author: Rachel Black
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 031338049X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
This encyclopedia presents the many sides of America's ongoing relationship with alcohol, examining the political history, pivotal events, popular culture, and advances in technology that have affected its consumption. From the constant advertising messages from beer, wine and liquor manufacturers to parties, weddings, and other social gatherings where alcohol is served to after-work happy hours with coworkers, the influence and presence of alcohol are inescapable in the United States. According to a government source, 50 percent of American adults identified themselves as "regular drinkers" (having at least 12 drinks in the past year). This encyclopedia presents an overview of the entire history of alcohol in America from the first colonies to present day, focusing on the often-marginalized and pop culture aspects of alcohol use and misuse. Entries illuminate topics such as the favorite alcoholic beverages in America; how they are manufactured; the role of alcohol in everyday life, special events, and across history; the impacts of alcohol consumption on society and health; and much more. Connections and influences from outside the United States are also considered for some topics.
