Back in the mid 60's my mother and father would take weekend trips thru mid and south New Jersey. On place we always stopped at was at a glass shop run by Mr. Iorio.
His billboard had his name as Mr. 10-R-10 he was a master glass cutter who worked at Corning Glass in the 20's and 30's.
My father and he got along well as they both spoke Italian.
He once asked me if I was interested in becoming an apprentice to learn glass cutting, being only 9-10 at the time I turned him down.
