Book Description
Pioneers in fused studio and production glass since the 1940s, Michael and Frances Higgins continue to create some of today's most collectible glass objects. Higgins: Adventures in Glass chronicles their careers and accomplishments in the studio, at Dearborn Glass Company and at Haeger Potteries. A must-have for glass collectors and 1950s/1960s fans alike, this new book features 645 full-color photos, company catalog, vintage advertising, interviews with the artists and price guide. The Higgins' "modern miracles with everyday glass" will appeal to all with an interest in mid-20th century design and collectibles.
About The Author
Donald-Brian Johnson (text) is the grandson of Dearborn Glass Company founder, Herman R. Paulick, Sr. Leslie Pia (photos) has a Ph.D in American Studies and heads the Interior Design department at Ursuline College in Cleveland, Ohio. Her husband Ramn assists with the photography.
Reader Reviews
A "Must Have" for any serious Higgins collector. There is an almost overwhelming amount of information presented in a most organized manner. So many wonderful color photographs that I went into sensory overload. Loads of great, historical information and imagery. The only down side of the book is that the price guide is not representative of current market values but if looked at properly will still give you a good idea of how one pattern will relate to another in value. I wish other collectable genres had reference guides of this caliber.
