This is their story, in words and beautiful color pictures, sufficient that todays glass enthusiasts can identify the Pairpoint shapes, colors, and patterns and fully appreciate these artistic treasures. The distinctive Pairpoint bubble ball, specialty and regular line items, markings, and many identifying characteristics are all fully explained. Value guide included.
