in patterns named after the states which were
members of the Union at that time.
These are now known as "The States' Patterns".
We are including a few here which are slightly peripheral to
the "official" list of patterns named for states but which
some now collect as a part of that series.

U. S. GLASS THE STATES PATTERNS; An Identification & Value Guide,
and they have generously allowed us to use
their valuable published information on this web site
