Nice book,

This review is from: The Antique Tool Collector's Guide to Value (Paperback)
This book gives a list of tools, but sometimes I find that the tool I'm looking for a price on isn't in this book.
And the I wasn't aware of the age of this book, some of the information was older than I had expected, but that could be because I didn't do the proper research. Overall it is a nice book and give a lot of pictures of tools, and they do tell some about the history of the tools. For what I paid for it, it was a good value.

This review is from: The Antique Tool Collectors Guide to Value (Paperback)
i bought this book as a gift for my father in law. when i recieved it my husband who is also into old tools read it first and said that he wanted it too! i guess that means the book lives up to its standards. i liked the pictures that went along with it so you could actually see the tool they were talking about. overall, good book!

This review is from: The Antique Tool Collectors Guide to Value (Paperback)
This looks like a fine book for antique woodworking hand tools. I needed prices for antique machine tools, which this book does not cover.
