If I had to name one US State to focus a collecting interest on if my collecting budget were limited, it would be New York . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NY gets zero respect, pre-pro collecting-wise, for reasons I don’t really understand. NYC is particularly hard done by. There’s well over 100 known NYC glasses and that number includes some of pre-pro’s best picture glasses, including the Old Valleys<\/a>, Seminole Clubs<\/a>, Auto Ryes<\/a>, Salzman Nightcaps and Eye Openers<\/a>, and a Rip Van Winkle<\/a>.
