The design and manufacturing processes used by Povey Bros. are described in detail through the analysis of period texts, historic photographs and a probate inventory compiled in 1924. The thesis concludes with a case study of the First Christian Church in Eugene, Oregon, a 1911 church containing many Povey windows. The case study includes a condition assessment of the windows at the First Christian Church and recommendations for the preservation of historic stained glass windows.enCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USdesign and manufacturing processesThe First Christian Church in Eugene, OregonspiritualityHISTORY AND PRESERVATION OF STAINED GLASS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST: THE POVEY BROS.
