They didn't use Plexiglass.
I have a 49 Hoffman glass right in front of me and it consists of a sheet of 3/32" clear bonded to a sheet of 9/32" green glass.
I have seen other 49 Hoffman sets that just had thick green glass but I have never seen one made of plastic.

I have read that the green glass was surplus glass from a building project in Los Angeles but I have my doubts.

If the glass Phil has is bonded I suspect the plastic material may have just discolored with age.
