Early American Prescut Glass
Early American Prescut, abbreviated EAPC, made by Anchor Hocking is pressed glassware that mimics cut glass.
First introduced in 1960, some EAPC was produced until the 1990s & early 2000s. Its star & fan design is sometimes called Star of David. Early American Prescut is a glass pattern made by the Anchor Hocking Company. It was in production from 1960-1978, but a few pieces were distributed up to 2000. Many of us have been collecting EAPC for years, while others are new to this hobby. We seek to share information and help each other learn more about this wonderful vintage glass.

Dress up your dining table, buffet, or snack table with a little Early American Prescut glassware - anytime! Its star and fan pattern and scalloped rims have a way of catching the light making it sparkle and shine with great brilliance. Foods of all types just look more delectable when you serve them in EAPC.

Got too many EAPC Dip Bowls? Here's a cute project you can do quickly this weekend. Glass mushroom yard art. All you need is a little glass glue a few chipped, damaged or extra EAPC common glassware and your imagination.
EAPC Small & Large Vases, Stars & Bars Vases, Starburst Vases or some other vase combined with just about any size EAPC bowl (I wouldn't use a Panel Bowl!) make excellent glass mushrooms. Embellish with a little paint or glass scatter stones like those in the photo as desired.
