Backglass VS Translite: A backglass is where the artwork is inked (yes they used ink and not paint) onto a sheet of glass by the process of silk screening. These were done from the 1940’s to early 1990’s. By the mid 1990’s, manufacturers switched to translites, where the image is transferred onto a plastic sheet which is they placed behind a clear sheet of glass.
