Fostoria - Mission Statement of 1936
IT was Fostoria who originated the complete dinner service of glass, which has been accepted by authorities on table decoration everywhere. It is styled to sell, because it conforms to the new trend of the times for beauty in merchandise.
But Fostoria does not exist merely to be beautiful. It is as durable as China and is absolutely practicable for serving hot and cold foods. No amount of hard wear or usage can dim its original lustre.
The fact that the score of different materials used in the making of Fostoria glass must all measure up to the same high standard of purity . . . that they must pass rigorous tests in the thoroughly equipped Fostoria chemical laboratory . . . that the clarity, brilliance and tint of the glass must conform to the specifications set by the designers—is responsible for the vision of the artist becoming a reality.
Thus the name, "Fostoria," has become a symbol in the public mind for the finest modern American glass. This has been accomplished first by the beauty and high quality of every piece of glass that bears the Fostoria label . . . by sound styling and the knowledge that merchandise in good taste sells best.
It is our earnest desire to do everything we can to help you increase your sales of Fostoria glassware, and to that end you will always find ready assistance and advice by writing to the Fostoria Glass Company, Moundsville, West Virginia.
