An entire world of Carnival Glass tumblers with many dating back to over a century ago, representative of countries far and wide, will be featured in this Wing. Classic USA tumblers form the greater part of the exhibits, and they include the rarest as well as the popular and accessible. Tumblers for Everyone – ranging from the kind of tumblers that are easily obtained, up to the rarest of the rare.

Three main Rooms are located within this Wing:

Classic Enamelled Tumblers 
Displaying Carnival Glass enamelled and decorated tumblers. They are primarily from the USA, but other countries are also represented. They date from possibly the late 1800s through to around 1930.
