WESTMORELAND:
The Westmoreland Glass Company was a company that produced glass in Pennsylvania USA. The Westmoreland Glass Company was founded in 1889 when a group of men purchased the Specialty Glass Company located Ohio and moved it to Pennsylvania.
Under the direction of Charles West, the company began to make high-quality hand-decorated glass from the 1920s through the 1930s, some of which was exhibited at the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
In 1937, Charles West retired and sold his interest to the Brainard family, which controlled the company until 1980. In the 1940s, the Brainards phased out the high-quality hand-decorated glass and began to produce primarily milk glass.
In 1980, the Brainards sold the company to businessman David Grossman, who had no prior experience running a large glass-manufacturing company. The company went out of business in 1984 and was sold for $75,000 to George Snyder, who converted the property into a storage facility.
