Gabbert Cullet Co., Inc

Description

So, in 1974, Joel Myers, Fritz Dreisbach, and I placed the first orders with O.J. "Jiggs" Gabbert for cullet at 3 cents a pound. We were unsure if we should share our source with others, because we had no idea what quantities were available. Jiggs assured us that there was more than enough to go around. The rest is history. All the schools started using this reasonably priced source of high quality cullet and, because Gabbert understood our needs and made the glass accessible, our programs were able to flourish. The Gabbert Cullet Co. is still in business having been purchased by Frank Lane in September of 1989, and still supplying some schools with cullet but I'm sure business has waned as new sources of good, clean, soft cullet have been made available.
