Dugan/Diamond: The Story of Indiana, Pennsylvania, Glass

The book you hold in your hands was the one which Bill Heacock intended to be the last in his series of twelve books entitled Encyclopedia of Victorian Pattern Glass. As life and luck would have it, he didn’t live to see that dream become a reality. I didn’t think it was proper to include this book in the Encyclopedia series since a substantial amount of research and additional writing had to be done by Barry Wiggins and Jim Measell to complete the manuscript for publication. As I was preparing this publisher’s introduction, I came upon an article which Bill had written for the premier issue of Glass Collector’s Digest. As I read it, he was alive and in the room again with me and I felt that reprinting those words was the best way to say my last good-bye to a good friend.
