From the back cover:
"This book is a fascimile reproduction of a nationally distributed
art glass catalog first published in 1909. The 406 hand-drawn designs,
half of them in color, range from Victorian ribbons and wreaths to the
whiplash curves of Art Nouveau and the geometric lines of the Prairie
School. They included simple diamond patterns priced at $0.60 a square
foot and elaborate landscapes priced at $5.50 a square foot."
"The designs were created by studios in cities across North America - from Vancouver to Boston, from Houston to Chicago. Windows made from these designs still grace thousands of homes throughout the United States and Canada."
