Recommended Carnival Glass Reference Books
The
following is a list of recommended carnival glass reference books. You
may wish to purchase some or all of these over time. Unfortunately having
a Library full of reference books on carnival glass will not guarantee
that you will find the exact piece you are looking for - there was simply
too much carnival glass made by too many manufacturers, and unfortunately
record-keeping was not one of their strengths. However, you should be
able to answer most of your questions from these books.
If you
need any more information about any of these books, or would like help
identifying a piece of carnival glass, please contact
us.
