    DEPRESSION ERA DIME STORE GLASS with Price Guide
    by C.L. Miller, Schiffer Publishing Ltd, PA, 1999.
    Illustrated with hundred of color and black-and-white photographs, this book "describes the extensive variety of glassware that was available to everyday consumers in the
    Depression
    years.  Once a staple item along 'Main Street USA', dime stores such as Ben Franklin, S.S. Kresge, McCrory, G.C. Murphy, J.J. Newberry, and E.W. Woolworth sold attractive, practical glassware at affordable prices, ranging from tableware, tumblers, and jugs to crystal stemware and artistic cut glass.  Using over 240 images, many drawn from original catalogues and advertisements, the
    author
    provides
    an informative and enjoyable
    guide
    for both new and experienced collectors."
