Invaluable guide for the collector of vintage board games. There is little text provided and no actual description of the games shown---you need to know what you are looking for but the photos of the games are excellent and a price guide is offered strictly as an aid in assessing the value of each game.

Okay, probably pretty obvious but just in case you are looking for something with average or above average photography like I was - this is not it. The photos look like point and shoot photos. Some of the game boxes have prices scrawled on them and they are pretty small - about 2 by 1 inch each. If you are looking for a reference with current selling prices and brief, one line descriptions of the games this is good. It is nice that it shows a game's box design progressing over the years. Not all games are covered but a lot are.

I am a reseller of used board games as well as a collector and this is THE BEST source available for anyone interested in old board games and their values. LOVE the pictures.
