Zimmermann and the Vienna, Austria foundry of Joseph Glanz. Among their varied products were iron and bronze figural match holders that both companies sold throughout Europe and North America. While the match holders shared a similar function their designs were decidedly different.   This book discusses the history of these products and illustrates many of the known figural match holders made by the Zimmermann and Glanz foundries.     To order Night Lights & Envelope Sealers Please send payments to: Contact Address: IMSA c/o Neil Shapiro 128 Lancaster Street Albany NY, 12210-1904 USA Email: nshapir1@nycap.rr.com Cost: IMSA members $49.00 + $6.50 USA shipping Non-IMSA members $59.00 + $6.50 USA shipping     Also available from IMSA Publishing: Japanese Match Safes, 2012 Gorham Match Safes, 2009 Exceptional Match Safes, 2008
