History
  • The McKee Glass Company was well-known for producing glassware during the 1930s, a time marked by economic challenges and creative adaptations in manufacturing.
  • Glass items like these custard cups were often used as marketing incentives, included with products to stimulate sales during the Great Depression and into the post-war years.
  • The unique production of jadeite glass, characterized by the blending of green and white glass scraps, emerged as a practical solution for resource management during a time of scarcity.
