It is estimated that including with the plain crystal
lines, the various lines of etchings, cuttings and decorations,
as well as shapes and designs, the company manufactures
over 20,000 different articles.
The company operates nine producing plants, five in
Pittsburgh, Pa., two in Glassport, Pa., one in Tiffin, Ohio,
and one in Gas City, Indiana; also two general decorating
shops and one special shop. It has a thoroughly exper-
ienced and efficient organization and employs approxi-
mately 3,000 people. Each plant has all the necessary
equipment for the production of its particular line of ware,
as well as the facilities for cutting, polishing, etching and
decorating, where this work is done.
The principal offices of the company are in Pittsburgh,
where large sales display rooms are maintained containing
one sample of each piece of ware manufactured by the
company. Branch sales display rooms are also main-
tained at New York, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Denver,
Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Francisco, London, England,
Sydney, Australia, Mexico City, Mexico, and Havana,
Cuba. The company further employs an efficient corps
of traveling salesmen, some of whom cover South America,
South Africa, and other distant points—so its ware is
shipped over practically the entire world, and the com-
pany and its products are well regarded and favorably
known wherever it does business.
