Status: offline 		Joe will be back to posting in a few.  There is a show on our public tv right now.  i don't know if it's PBS or only on the PA channel, but thought I'd let you know.  The show is on a book by James Flannery called "The Glass House Boys of Pittsburgh".  If you can't see the show, you might want to check out the book.  I know I'll be putting it on my wish list.

Status: offline 		I was there many years ago on two occassions before I ever graduated high school or even had the bottle sickness.  The museum is less than two hours away.  Thanks for reminding me.  I will try to get there before the ground thaws here.

Let's see the rest of the pics, Charlie's probably drooling waiting...

Status: offline 		Okay,....You learn something new each day (if you're lucky) ...From watching the glasshouse boys show, It was stated that the union, the glass industry and the parents of the boys (whom needed the income) resisted the Owens bottle machine much later than other locales....It was said that the union even came up with the quarter of a million dollar licensing fee, so as to "sit on" the owens machine and keep it out of Pittsburgh..Does this mean that hand finished bottles prevailed in Pittsburgh up into the 1900's?, quite simply....yes.                                                                    Joe
