Barbara Ann Edmonson, Ph.D.
Born Tuesday, October 15, 1912
Kansas City, Missouri
Entered into Eternal Life
Monday, November 1, 2004

(from her memorial service program)

The following few pages pay tribute to the life and work of Barbara Edmonson, better known to pre-pro glass collectors as the author of Historic Shot Glasses and Old Advertising Spirits Glasses ( "HSG" and "OASG").

Barb was formidable pre-pro collector with well over a thousand glasses in her possession at one time. Her work on the two books provided collectors with a common language that helped define the hobby as we know it today. She created the bed rock upon which the modern pre-pro community was built.

These pages were developed in tandem with an article written for Bottles & Extras magazine.
