China and Glass in America, 1880-1980
註釋"Illustrated with more than 200 photographs of enticing glass and ceramic objects, this volume is the first to take a comprehensive look at the modern tableware used in American homes, examining its cultural and business history as well as its design. From table settings for "dainty" ladies' luncheons early in the century, to trendy accessories for suburban barbecues in the post-World War II years, to the tinfoil trays invented for TV dinners, this book celebrates the complete history of dining ware. Fully indexed with an extensive bibliography, this is an essential volume for readers interested in American cultural and business history, collectors, and admirers alike."--BOOK JACKET.
