source for clear or white glass for framing

Does anybody have a good and cheap source for clear or white glass for

framing? I looked around for True Vue, which is one brand, but found

very little. I have looked around at framing supply stores here in

NYC, they carry it, but are very expensive. I must use glass, plexi

won't work...

Glaziers buy their pane glass in larger sheets called "lights," sometimes spelled "lites." There are different thicknesses and qualities, so the prices vary. The lights come in bundles, interleaved with paper, but scratches and blemishes do occur, so glass sheets are often sold as select or random. In the case of select, they search out flawless sheets for you at a higher price. Many lumberyards do the same in selling various lengths of wood. "Random" means you take what you get off the pile, and "select" allows you to reject warped or split boards. Any good local glazier should be able to furnish you with select pane glass, or order it, at a slightly higher price than "random."
