    <abstract id="aspace_c69ec58581139e8448b41661842eb0d0">An account book, calling card, stock certificates and photograph of the A.E. Lewis Sash and Door Company. Arthur Earl Lewis (1880-1940) was a window glass cutter at the Marilla plant before opening the A.E. Lewis Sash and Door Company in Morgantown (1910-13) in a building adjacent to the Westover bridge. After the building burnt down, Lewis reopened the business but later quit in order to serve as a manager of the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co. in West Virginia for the remainder of his life. His family, which emigrated from Wales before the American Revolution, had always worked in the glass industry and Arthur himself was apprenticed in the industry at the age of 12.</abstract>
