I am always trying to figure out whether it`s Wissmach or Kokomo when doing a restoration project. I have learned the hard way that the dead givaway is that Wissmach has a shiny surface on the face side of the glass. Retoration is a trick animal but wissmach is still a dependable line.

Encouraging to see a U.S. based manufacturing facility surviving and thriving.

Just looking at the different types of glass available. Getting back into stained glass slowly and trying to decide which way to go.

While doing some family research, I came across your company name written on a WWI Draft card. My Great-Great Grandfather was employed as a glass maker in 1918 until he was drafted. I thought it would be a nice signature in your guestbook. I do have a photocopy of the original WWI document if there's any interest.
