The Three Rivers Glass Co. (Hinson)

Author: Dave Hinson · Year: 1998 (per PDF metadata) · PDF: assets/pdfs/1998-hinson-three-rivers-glass-co.pdf

A 3-page paper by Dave Hinson on the Three Rivers Glass Co., published c.1998. Short-form companion to the longer Smith (1989) and Lockhart treatments.

Relevance to H&H

Three Rivers Glass was H&H’s earliest Crystalvac jar supplier (1932–1936/37). With three independent sources on the firm now in the KB (Smith 1989, Lockhart c.2010s, and Hinson 1998), the project has triangulated sourcing for any Three Rivers-marked bottle attribution claim.

The shortest of the three, Hinson 1998 is best used as a quick orientation document — the longer treatments handle the deep details. Curator should verify whether Hinson cites or is cited-by the other two; if Hinson is the earliest of the three (the 1998 PDF metadata supports that), the Smith and Lockhart works may have built on it.
