Early American Pattern Glass, Book 1 and Much More Early American Pattern Glass, Book 2

Alice Hulett Metz
Collector Books, Revised 1978
These are first off the shelf when I'm trying to identify a pattern. The patterns are grouped logically and are easy to find if you have a general knowledge of pattern glass. Each pattern has a list of forms produced known by Mrs. Metz. While these lists are not all encompassing, they do for the most part only list pieces that were actually made. The prices should not be used however, as they are obviously outdated.
