SOURCE
When we give helpful information on HISTARCH we should always try to
give the source(s), especially if we have a published secondary source or
primary source. If it is something we just know, that is fine, but we need
to say so.
Is this statement based on Alread Lief A CLOSE-UP OF CLOSURES, HISTORY
AND PROGRESS (Glass Container Manufacturers Instutitue,New York)? By
the way, does anyone know the publication date (1970s??) or if this
booklet is still available?
