As an avid collector of American art pottery, I was thrilled by the incredible scope of this book. It's also made me get out and search for more pieces to upgrade my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Guide with 4,500 photos and 8,000 listings, May 24, 2010

This review is from: Antique Trader Antiques & Collectibles 2010 Price Guide (Antique Trader's Antiques & Collectibles Price Guide) (Paperback)

I highly recommend this book as a general price guide. It has more photos and more detailed descriptions than any other general price guide available. The review by B. Marcoux ("Psychnurse") is unrealistic and shows a lack of understanding of the purpose of a general price guide. A general price guide is intended to give a broad overview of as many categories as possible. It isn't meant to provide an example of every item ever produced, as there would be hundreds of thousands in each category. It shows representative samples to give a cross section of the types and values of items in each category. There are many price guides available dedicated to specific categories like jewelry, but even specific guides can't cover everything ever made. The Antique Trader price guide actually does cover jewelry in quite a bit of depth. It has about 40 pages of jewelry with several hundred photos and listings covering 200 years, and it is introduced by a jewelry market report. Most sections of the book have a photo for almost every item.

This Antiques and Collectible book is one I have designed for the last 8 years. I think the book has nice photos, alot of information for your collector, whether you are a avid collector or other. If you know of someone to buy it for a Christmas gift that does collect. This would be the book.
