We’re going to the birthplace of glass in the U.S. Before steel

making of the early 20th century, Pittsburgh was creating glass.

As early as the 1820s Pittsburgh was a major distributor of glass

products. Pittsburgh glass was used for globes that lit the

nation's streets, windows for homes, and jars for food. By the

Civil War, Pittsburgh's glass trade was a $7 million business with

20 bottle and vial factories, 23 window glass factories, 22 flint

glass factories, and a number of glass producers devoted

exclusively to the production of glass chimneys. What an ideal

place for our 26th annual convention.

WEDNESDAY APRIL 30TH

Heinz History Center/ Lunch at LeMont on Mt.

Washington / National Aviary Enjoy a full day of

Pittsburgh's best

attractions. You

will start at the

fantastic "Heinz

History Center."

From the

pre-revolutionary

drama of the

French & Indian

War to the legendary match-ups of the Super Steelers, discover 250

years of Pittsburgh history at the Senator John Heinz History Center.

An affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the History Center is the

largest history museum in Pennsylvania. You'll tour the center's long-term

exhibit “ Glass: Shattering Notions” which transports visitors back to a time

when the ancient art of glass making was used to build Pittsburgh's future. It

marked the birth of the glass industry – and it happened right here in

Pittsburgh. The exhibit showcases the beauty, science, utility and

technology of Western Pennsylvania glass over the past 200 years.

From the Heinz Center you will travel up Mount Washington for lunch at

LeMont with its fantastic food and view of downtown Pittsburgh. Choose

between Chicken Marsala (Chicken sauteed with a mushroom blend in a

sweet Marsala wine sauce); or Lemon Sole (Sole lightly breaded and served

with lemon butter). Both include green salad and desert - Strawberry Melba

- vanilla ice cream with fresh strawberries and a raspberry Melba sauce.

Your tour will then proceed to The National Aviary. The Pittsburgh

National Aviary is a vast indoor aviary and the biggest of its kind in the

United States, being home to around 600 birds. Attractions are

extremely varied and

range from outdoor

bird shows and,

feeding displays, to

personal encounters

with penguins. The

National Aviary's

large walk-through

exhibits create an experience unlike any other – an intimate,

up-close interaction between visitors and free-flying birds, including

opportunities to hand-feed and meet many species rarely found in

zoos anywhere else in the world.

Price per person for the tour is $85.00 which includes luxury passenger coach transportation, tour guide, sit-down

lunch salad and desert with your choice of Chicken Marsala or Lemon Sole (see complete descriptions above). Space is

limited to the first 52 registrants. Tour Length 9:30 AM - 4:30 PM.



THURSDAY MAY 1ST

Frank Lloyd Wrights’s Fallingwater

Fallingwater is included on many lists including the Smithsonian Life

List of 43 Places to See Before You Die. Don't miss this fantastic

opportunity to view this icon of American architecture

If the skyscraper is America's most iconic building, a small personal

residence in southwest Pennsylvania might be its most ingenious.

Frank Lloyd Wright completed Fallingwater in 1937, and months later

Time magazine put the house on its cover, proclaiming it the architect's

"most beautiful job." Wright designed it in 1935, at his professional

nadir, as a mountain retreat for Pittsburgh retail mogul Edgar J.

Kaufmann, who wanted a home near the waterfalls of Bear Run.

Wright took that notion to its extreme. "I want you to live with the

waterfall," he is said to have told Kaufmann, "not just to look at it."

Cantilevered concrete terraces hover some 30 feet above the falls. The

incessant sound of rushing water permeates the home, yet never overwhelms. A boulder juts

through the living room and doubles as a hearth. Low ceilings direct attention outside. "You've

never seen a building that fits with nature so tightly," Toker says. "It's not merely nature, it's

animated. You've seen Vegas and Times Square, but you've never seen a building that's in

constant motion." You’ll enjoy a box lunch and refreshment on the way back to the hotel.

Price per person for the tour is $75.00 which includes pre-departure coffee and rolls, bus

transportation, entrance fees to Fallingwater, and a box lunch - choose from ham, turkey, roast beef or vegetarian.

Space is limited to the first 52 registrants. Tour Length 8:00 AM - 3:15 PM.

SATURDAY, MAY 3RD

Gateway Clipper - Captain’s Dinner Dance Cruise

The perfect night out in Pittsburgh is aboard the Gateway Clipper's signature cruise, the Captain's Dinner Dance. This

extraordinary evening features an unparalleled view of one of world's most exquisite

skylines as you cruise the three rivers of Pittsburgh - the Monongahela, Allegheny, and

Ohio , a tantalizing buffet, live music and dancing under the sparkling city lights. A typical

buffet menu includes Hand Carved Rosemary Encrusted Roasted Strip Loin of Beef

served with a Demi Glaze, Sauteed Chicken Breast served with Orange-Cranberry

Sauce, Parmesan and Garlic Roasted

Red Skin Potatoes Rice Pilaf with

Smokey Bacon, Onion and Green Peas, Buttered

Baby Carrots, Caesar Salad, Vermicelli Pasta Salad Chocolate Volcano

Cake, Lemon Roulade, Fresh Dinner Rolls with Butter, Hot Coffee & Hot

Tea.

Price per person for the tour is $95.00 which includes luxury motor coach

transportation, Captains dinner Dance Cruise, meal and driver gratuity.

(Note: alcoholic beverages are not included in price). Space is limited to the

first 52 registrants. Tour Length 5:15 PM - 10:15 PM.



OUR 2014 PRESENTATIONS”

"Scents in Cinema"Hosts: Susan Arthur & Jeffrey Sanfilippo with Ken Leach as Media Consultant

The International Perfume Bottle Association is pleased to present to you "Scents in Cinema." From the

early talkies to the slick multi-million dollar productions of today, scents and their beautiful vessels have played

diverse roles from background and period staging to "setting the mood" to starring as a feature "character" in the plot!

Vessels of scents on a movie set are used to decorate a room, create a mood, trigger a memory, provide clues in the

subplot, link a historical period, or establish a level of wealth and class. Protagonists can wear scent, savor scent, tout

scent or trash scent!

Do you remember the classic Double Indemnity? Directed by Billy Wilder in

1944, Fred MacMurray is an insurance salesman and Barbara Stanwyck is a

provocative housewife who wishes her husband were dead……

MacMurray: You'll be here too?

Stanwyck: I guess so, I usually am.

MacMurray: Same chair, same perfume,

same anklet?

Stanwyck: I wonder if I know what you

mean.

MacMurray: I wonder if you wonder.

How about the 1992 drama Scent of a Woman that starred Al Pacino as a blind, alcoholic,

grouchy retired Army officer who wears Olgeby Sisters Soap and admires Donna's Caron

Fleurs de Rocaille? Join Jeffrey and Susan, as they explore "Scents in Cinema" – they

promise an entertaining format filled with lots of movie clips of your favorite bottles and

fragrances. There will be audience participation, factoids and maybe even some popcorn!

DeVilbiss – Beyond the CatalogsMarti DeGraff and Toby Mack, Presenters

Marti and Toby's newly published book, "DeVilbiss Perfume Bottles: 1907 to 1968",

Schiffer Publishing Company, will become available in February 2014. This

presentation will highlight some of the special areas uncovered in their extensive

research, and found in their substantial archive of DeVilbiss Company records.

Features include never-before seen factory

documents, including artist renderings of new

designs, production specifications and

documentation of bottles not found in DeVilbiss

catalogs, and selections from uncirculated catalogs

showing product lines prior to 1922. Also included will be important new recent

discoveries from their advanced collection of DeVilbiss. Some of this material is

neither included in their book nor available elsewhere, so this will be a unique

opportunity to enrich your knowledge beyond what's currently published.



Their book is the first-ever complete guide to collecting and understanding the perfume bottles

and related vanity products produced by DeVilbiss. It includes over 900 photos of 1,000 bottles,

lamps, and accessories from the authors' extensive collection and several of the other most

important DeVilbiss collections in America. Their book provides information from

never-before-seen DeVilbiss Company archives, including specifications, design and engineering

drawings, product descriptions, and company correspondence. Special focus is given to the glass

manufacturers that supplied bottles to DeVilbiss. Also included is an exploration of the early cut

and decorated bottles from Bohemia and the American Brilliant period, the opulent designs of

the 1920s, the recovery from Depression along with new tastes of the 1930s, and the post-war

embrace of the glass masters of Murano, Germany, and France.

A Fireside Chat with Annette GreenPresident Emeritus, The Fragrance Foundation

Join long time IPBA member Annette Green in an informal

review and discussion of her illustrious 40+ year career with the

Fragrance Foundation. Annette will share her latest news on

the memoir she is currently writing, "Perfume In My Veins - A

Celebrity-fueled Tale of a Trailblazer Whose Passion Powered

the Fragrance Industry in America - 1963-2003"

Recognized as one of America's leading fragrance authorities

and futurists, Annette Green was appointed President of The

Fragrance Foundation in 1980, after having served as Executive Director for 20 years of the non-profit, educational

organization. In 1991, she was elected Secretary of the Foundation's Board of Directors on which she had served since

1984. Upon her retirement in 2003, the Board of Directors named her President Emeritus.

The Fragrance Foundation's Annual "FiFi" Awards, the Oscars of the fragrance industry, were conceived by Ms. Green

40 years ago. In 1992, Ms. Green inaugurated the European "FiFi" Awards in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the

United Kingdom. Ms. Green co-authored the extraordinary never-before written reportage on the history of jewelry

designed to hold fragrance, with fashion journalist, Linda Dyett. In Secrets of Aromatic Jewelry, the authors present

this fascinating and unique art form within the historical context of fashion, fragrance and social trends. At the end of

the 20th Century, Ms. Green developed and opened the country's first fragrance museum. The Board of Directors of

the Foundation elected to name the museum, the Annette Green Museum at The Fragrance Foundation.

While you’re in Pittsburgh - WHY NOT A “DO IT YOURSELF TIFFANY TOUR”

In the late 1800s, when Andrew Carnegie and Henry Clay Frick were making Pittsburgh's name synonymous with

steel, Louis Comfort Tiffany was installing his stained glass windows in Pittsburgh churches and mansions.

Pittsburgh has more Tiffany windows than most cities of its size. Given the amount of wealth in Pittsburgh at the

time, it’s not surprising that you can find Tiffany windows in eight churches. Why not take advantage of the

2014 IPBA convention to see some of Tiffany’s beautiful works? All of these venues have different policies

regarding visits and tours, so please call ahead. On each of the maps following the “A” marks the location of the

Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown hotel, your starting point for each of the three self- tours.

North Side Tour & Map

g The largest Tiffany windows in the tri-state area are found at Calvary United

Methodist Church, 971 Beech Ave (Map B)., at Allegheny Avenue in Allegheny

West on the North Side (412/323-1070). On both sides of the sanctuary are two

30-foot-high triptychs. One features Christ's resurrection, the other his ascension.

The back window, made in 1894 or 1895, was the most costly stained glass

commission of its time by Tiffany's studio. A recent cleaning removed more than

100 years of dirt from all of the windows.

gThe Children's Museum of Pittsburgh (Map C), Allegheny Square,

exhibits a 12-foot-high stained-glass window attributed to Tiffany. The

window was formerly installed in the Henry W. Oliver home on Ridge

Avenue. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondays through

Saturdays; noon to 5 p.m. Sundays. For more information, visit

www.pitttsburghkids.org or call412-322-5058.



gEmmanuel Episcopal Church (Map D), 957 W. North Ave., is a National

Historic Landmark. Designed by Henry Hobson Richardson and built in 1886,

the church has three Tiffany windows given in memory of Malcolm Hay. Tours

are available by appointment. Call 412-231-0454.

Downtown Tour & Map
