History Corner – PR Historical Society

You won’t want to miss a fantastic opportunity to learn about “Glass through the Ages.” It will be held Aug.11, 2007, from 10am-1pm at the Historical Society Museum.

Darcel Tanquary is the owner of the collection. She collects colored, clear, patterned glass from mostly the early 1900’s and is planning to bring a variety with her. She will be there to tell about the collection and answer questions. Ms. Tanquary belongs to glass clubs, one of which is “The 20, 30, 40’s Society”, where she is an active member. She has displayed her glass before and also has numerous displays at home. The colored glass is just lovely. Ms. Tanquary also traveled to many glass conventions. She was part of an antique store in recent years. In addition to this, Darcel is a great cook, cake decorator, and maker of watermelon pickles!!
