The other top 10, in order of their popularity, are: American glassware, woodworking, model-makindolls, autographs, coins, painting, needlework and miniatures. This represents a complete change in Americas hobby habits since 1941, when the last nationwide comprehensive study showed that the 10 most popular hobbies were stamps, dolls, coins, books, cook-nbuttons, Indian arrow-head- s and artifacts, amateur naturalists (collecting butterflies, insects, etc.), trains and postcards.

However, ;he last three years have seen the formation of close to 600 clubs dedicated to the collecting of hand-mad- e American glassware. Approximately 250,000 men and women are engaged in this hobby.
