AAGSSCS HISTORY

 
 
Dottie & the Late Bill Avery

 
The Antique and Art glass Salt Shaker Collector's Society was founded by Dottie and the late Bill Avery in 1983 with the first newsletter published in March of that year.  It has prospered as a society since that time developing into one of the premier collecting societies for antiques. As a result of this club,  antique salt shakers have seen a remarkable rise in popularity.

The club has prospered because of the excellent membership of quality collectors that it has attracted and developed.  However, the success of the club has been as a direct result of the enthusiasm, hard work and continuous dedication of some its founders.


 
The "Pioneer" salt shaker has particular significance to antique salt shaker collectors. The AAGSSCS Quarterly Newsletter is named "The Pioneer". Please click on the picture to read the story.
