Negatory on that, Sharpshooter, but will attempt (feebly) to investigate.  I
wonder if "glacier" wasn't a reference to the use of a chipped, icy-looking
treatment of the clear glass, rather than a description of a QA sash.  Does
anybody know what they called what we call QA sash?  I love 'em, whatever
they're called-- the former estate in Jersey City had 'em still, from 1887.
Sigh.
