Q: What references do you use to check the availability and value of glasses? A: My first two sources and what sparked my early interest in whiskey shots were Barbara Edmonson’s two books; Old Advertising Spirit Glasses and Historic Shot Glasses. Both books are highly recommended to the novice and advanced collector. ebay is also a great source to learn about glasses. The more time you spend searching for glasses, the more you learn which are common and which are more scarce or desirable. What has become, in my opinion, one of the best sources to learn about shot glasses however, is Robin Preston’s pre-pro.com shot glass website. He has done a tremendous service to this hobby by building that web site. Then again Howard, your efforts should also be recognized in aiding his website. The neat thing about Robin’s website, is that he encourages everyone to participate. The database section of the website is an excellent source to get familiar with what’s out there. |
