Item Description
1930s McKee Sailboat Milk Glass Refrigerator Dish
The
McKee Glass Company was established in 1853 in Pittsburgh, PA under the
name McKee and Brothers Glass Works. In 1888 the company relocated and
settled in a small town which they created and named Jeannette, after
Mrs. McKee. Colored kitchenware and dinnerware lines were a large part
of the production by the mid 1920's. By 1929 Jeannette had expanded to a
population of 18,000 and the town now contained eight different glass
companies. Due to the mass production and marketing of machine made
glassware during the Depression, McKee began to lose business to its
competitors. As a result, McKee began to look to the future and all but
abandoned hand made glassware in favor of machine made glass. In the
1940s McKee was purchased by the Thatcher Glass Company and was renamed
the McKee Division of Thatcher Glass. In 1961 it was again sold, this
time to Jeannette Glass Company. At this time Jeannette took over the
company for their own use and the McKee Glass Company ended production
of its own glassware
