<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 10404596, member: 308"]As best I can figure it's another fad. I can't keep it in stock. Customers like that they can shine a black light on it and it glows green. They don't really care about any other facts about the glass beyond the fact it glows. They wander the mall with black light flashlights. At home they have cabinets set up with black lights just so they can show the glass off. It's not restricted to depression glass - I've had pieces of Fenton, Bohemian, and EAPG that also glowed and that also sold quickly. If it glows any other color beyond green (or possibly yellow) no one seems to care.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
