3400 Line
by Mark Nye
Issue No. 101 - September 1981
In compiling this listing of the 3400 Line, I used not only the
references listed elsewhere but also the material available in the
Study Room at the 1980 NCC Convention.
The listing is organized by item number, from lowest to highest. In
all cases, the item was positively identified as being part of the 3400
Line by finding a Cambridge Glass Co. listing as 3400/xxx. The
description is the Cambridge description except where I have added
additional clarifications and these are so indicated by an
underline.
The references serve a two fold purpose. First, it verifies the
authenticity of the listing and second, in most instances, it provides
a source where a picture of the item may be found. For many of the
items, the listed reference is simply the first listing I found, or it
seemed to be the best illustration of the particular piece. In several
cases, however, it is the only reference I could find for that item. No
attempt was made to designate whether single or multiple references are
available. The references are explained below.
There are missing items, indicated by an item number and no
description or reference. In all my searching, I simply could find no
reference to these numbers, either verbal or pictorial. I would be
interested in hearing from anyone who can supply any of the missing
items.
