Mothball Miscellaneous is a series on the Mothball Prophecies all about American manufacturing and how to find and identify possible collectables. This week Sam nerds out with Melissa Watson, everyone's favorite leather worker. These two marvelous ladies go over how glass making came to the United States (colonies of Great Britain at the time), some of the big players at the time, and how serious glass used to be. Melissa confesses that she didn't find this subject interesting at first, but was pleasantly surprised upon closer inspection. So if you're tilting your head at "American Made Glass" and thinking of skipping this episode, pull up a chair; you're about to learn something. Also, please remember to support your local ecosystem by not chopping down and burning all available trees for your business.
