Its difficult to determine who has the largest collection. The first problem is "What is a Shotglass"? Some people collect the Hard Rock Cafe ones but others say "Thats not a shotglass thats a shooter!!!". Liberal and conservative collectors argue all the time as to what "is a shotglass". The liberals say if you use it to measure alcohol its a shot glass. The conservatives say it is 3.7" across the top and 3.5" across the bottom and holds 1.5 ounces!!!
And who is a collector. Anchor Hocking says they have the largest collection because they have tens of thousands. But they manufacture them.
So this is not an easy question. Try looking at Mark Pickvet's web site called Shotglass.org
