The Mt. St. Helens Tumbler Second
Second Quality Glass
FAQ:
What is a “second-quality glass”?
Second Quality glasses are perfectly good glasses that don’t meet our rigorous quality standards. They are likely too light in weight, too heavy or have some subtle surface imperfections like bubbles or lines in them. We have a seconds sale every year and have yet to hear of a disappointed customer.
Can I return a second glass?
Nope, all second sales are final.
Our handblown, 8 oz pint glass with USGS data of Mount St. Helens at 8,363 ft molded into the base of the glass.
The Mount St. Helens major eruption of May 18, 1980 remains the deadliest and most destructive volcanic events in U.S. history. Fifty-seven people were killed; 200 homes, 47 bridges, 15 miles of railways, and 185 miles of highway were destroyed. A massive debris avalanche, triggered by a magnitude 5.1 earthquake, caused a lateral eruption that reduced the elevation of the mountain's summit from 9,677 ft to 8,363 ft , leaving a 1 mile wide horseshoe-shaped crater, all captured in our glass. The mountain is still actively monitored to today by USGS and many others.
