David Barker's Elephant Pattern Glass by Joyce J. Johnston: David Barker was one of the most creative individuals in the history of American glass. Yet very little has been written about this influential man. Not only were his glass designs renown, in particular his Jumbo and Barnum pattern, he developed critical advances in glass production. The story starts with his work at the Crystal Glass Company of Pittsburgh and moves to the creation of his own firm, The Novelty Glass Company and later The Brilliant Glass Company. Many of the patterns he designed, Frosted Eagle, Tiny Lion, and Frosted Flower Band patterns for example are discussed, but emphasis is placed on the Jumbo & Barnum pattern which often featured elephants. Thirteen items are pictured.
