   The other interesting thing about collecting carnival glass is that there are   
   so many clubs out there and one can usually find one somewhat close to where   
   they live.  Each offer annual conventions and newsletters with lots of good   
   information.  Also many carnival glass clubs have an online presence with a   
   website that will offer lots of great info and pictures.  This is not typical   
   of most collecting categories as there is typically one club that unites them.   
      
   There is so much more that can be said but there is not enough time within   
   this article.  Perhaps I will write additional articles on the fascinating   
   subject in future issues of this publication since there is so much to offer   
   on this subject.   
      
   Note:   
   This article appeared in the West Virginia Museum of American Glass   
   publication, All About Glass.  This was written from the perspective of my   
   early days of collecting carnival glass and my fond memories of an individual   
   who taught me so much.  In addition, it was also written to possibly influence   
   others into collecting this great glass.
