Cover title.
List only of the 27 artists who created the designs.
"Each one of this distinguished group of painters and sculptors was commissioned by Steuben to make a design for the decoration of crystal, in some cases further indicating the shape of the object on which the decoration was to be placed. Thus the style and character of each artist is perpetuated in glass, the individual being given every freedom of subject in an effort to recapture those characteristics for which each is famous in present day art"--
