Title: Goofus Glass
Post by: debodun on June 07, 2013, 08:35:18 AM

Is goofus glass considered an antique? I've identified several pieces I have as goofus, painted and unpainted - opinions?

As far as being antique, there are pieces that are approaching being 100 years old, so it certaintly qualifies in that regard. The collector interest has always been fairly narrow compared to some other glass lines from the era, so finding a buyer willing to pay a fair price remains a problem.
