1.0 out of 5 stars American Furniture of the 19th Century 1840 ~ 1880
I have purchased this fine Antique Reference Book before, but not this edition and had I realized it had prices I would not have purchased it again. These prices are out dated the minute they are established and hence this book does a dealer of fine Antiques NO favors and a disservice to the collector. If the values are 10 years old, what does that say for today's...

This review is from: American Furniture of the 19th Century: 1840-1880 (A Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Hardcover)
I have purchased this fine Antique Reference Book before, but not this edition and had I realized it had prices I would not have purchased it again. These prices are out dated the minute they are established and hence this book does a dealer of fine Antiques NO favors and a disservice to the collector. If the values are 10 years old, what does that say for today's value. You can't buy gasoline or groceries with an established price of 10 years ago and you can't buy antiques that way either.

Terrible thing they ( the publishers ) did to such a fine reference book.
