The Iowa City Flint Glass Manufacturing Company was incorporated in Iowa City in 1880. The company made pressed glass from local materials for a brief time from 1881-1882. Due to the short production schedule, Iowa City glass is rare and admired by collectors. Join Keith Hemmingway, a descendant of the company's original investor, for a discussion of the various glass patterns and pieces manufactured by the company.
