Paper Weights Made In USA

Gloria Dodd wrote to ask for suggestions in purchasing Made In USA paperweights.

This is a photo of the 1968 Blenko Catalog -  a page of paperweights.
We would also recommend visiting the American Glass Museum -  WV Glass Museum in Weston, WVa.   This museum has a large display of American Paperweights.

Locally ( WVa)  both Blenko Glass  www.blenkoglass.com  and  Ron Hinkle Glass  www.ronhinkle.com  make quality paperweights.

    Horrible paperweights. Why did Blenko bother to make these tacky things?

    Anyone have older Blenko paperweights they want to part with?
    I'd like to purchase.

    Agreed with Anon #1. IllBay *oops* ebay has several ugly ones now. Buy them all to save us from looking at them.
