I love this book! I first borrowed it from a friend until I could purchase my own. It has lots of pictures of antique and contemporary stretch glass. Some of the companies I'd never heard of before now. The other great thing about this book, is that in the back it has line drawings of some commonly confused bowls, candlesticks, covered bonbons, candy jars, handled servers, cheese and cracker sets, etc. Each diagram has the measurements that apply to the specific maker. This makes it easy to distinguish between two similar items, for example, three candlesticks that look very similar are "Spindle" made by Diamond, Imperial and Vineland. The measurements and descriptions will help the reader identify the right maker for their Spindle candlestick. It has a great section on US Glass products and some very obscure pieces by Northwood and Jeannette Glass. I highly recommend this book.

Thie book was sent fast and in very good condition. It has the information I had hoope for in it. Good buy for me. JS in Iowa
