Possibly their best-known pattern was “Harvest”, that was made during the 1970s when Carnival Glass enjoyed a major revival. The pattern was introduced and made in other glass, such as milk glass, a decade or so earlier. The 70s! Lava lamps, the Sony Walkman, Charlie’s Angels, ABBA, platform shoes and bell-bottoms!

The Carnival Glass made during the Seventies was “of its time” and today it’s retro, it’s nostalgic, it is so deliciously typical of its era. And in just a few years it will be half a century old. Indiana’s Harvest Carnival pieces represent their era, and in themselves they are a compliment to, and testimony of, the popularity of mainstream Classic Carnival that began around 1906-7. See less
