It is extremely valuable. Around the time of the Great Depression this glassware was given out for free. It was manufactured in middle America and not in great qualities so now due to its rise in popularity Depression Glass is not readily available making it a high ticket item.

As with any item, the value of depression glass is only as valuable as the scarcity of it. If the glass is a rare color and shape, it can range from fifty dollars per piece.

It all depends on the pattern and condition. I suggest looking for whichever piece or pieces you have on an online auction website. There are also several reference books on the subject. You can either check your local library or bookstore for some more information.
