Excerpt from Collecting Old Glass: English and Irish Hartshorne's, and well known to all principal collectors of old glass. Most of the illustrations represent typical pieces in my own collection, but for some of the finest I have to thank the kindness of Mrs. Devitt, of Herontye, East Grinstead, a collector indeed. The illustrations do not represent relative sizes to the same scale. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
