Heart of Glass - Blenko Glass

Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Blenko

Hilary,
At an estate sale, we bought a folder of Blenko Glass newspaper clippings and news articles and ads cut from paper. There is an ad for each of the Birthday items and many many other.
What is the value of this?

Becky,
Tammy Kosla of the Blenko Collectors Four, and Tim Alonzo of the Blenko Collectors Society both collect paper products and may be able to help you establish a value.
Good luck, we would welcome photos of the collection.

Dear All: It is WV Janis here--

This collection of ephemera related to BLENKO is the greatest thing I've heard about in a while. I'd love for the collection to somehow land in the archives of the WV Museum of American Glass in Weston. Even if a value were to be put on it and someone would buy it for the museum. I don't know if they buy outright....maybe. If so, Dean Six, would be the person to contact. At the museum, this BLENKO material would be available in the archives for ALL to see.

By the way, anyone interested in glass owes it to him/herself to visit the museum in Weston. The displays are well done, informative, and priceless!
