why do blenko people seem to leave those stickers and price tags on their glass? inquiring minds want to know! jill
Jill perhpas a knowledgable collector will also respond my answer is - I leave the Blenko label on glass that I don't use - for glass tableware that I use, I store the label. Price tags have the catalogue # on them so many collectors keep the price tags. Hope this helps. Its personal preference. hjh
