Frederick Carder & Steuben Glass

American Classic

Beschreibung

This study of Frederick Carder's contributions to the Steuben Glass Works (which he co-founded in 1903) and the works he produced in glass are presented with over 760 photographs and 450 line drawings, the majority from the Rockwell collections. Reference material and photographs never before in print are provided. A section valuable to all collectors discusses aspects of identification and evaluation--signatures, relative rarity, and dating.
