This is my scan and proofreading of the long article on Glass in
the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica. The article on Glass, actually several articles pushed together, is very good, very complete, and especially useful as it was written just as the entire world of glass was changing with the introduction of mechanical bottle and sheet glass manufacture and the end of hand blown mass production. 2001-01-10 I have just added the article from the 1922 added volumes, considered with the 1911 Eleventh Edition to be the 12th Edition. Instead of separate pages, the whole article is together. EB Glass 1922 2005-09-23 HOW I CLEANED THE SCAN |
