In addition, they generally stopped work during the hot summer months. Introduction of the first mechanical pressing and blowing machines at the turn of the century spelt the end of the glass blowers but their works remain as a tribute to their craft. * RCOM AIR CONDITIONERS The fruit jar was an important production item for early glass companies.
