The authors have gathered the rare, the unusual, and the expensive glass so very desirable to collectors and so very attractive to newcomers. For the first time, readers may view items that only rarely come out of private collections and almost never go on public auction. Collectors will marvel at the more than 450 full-color pieces, whether they are scarce due to availability, shape, or color. Organized alphabetically by pattern, the book features items in standard shapes as well as whimsey pieces. Edwards's & Carwile's latest book truly does feature the 'best of the best' in the carnival collecting world, and readers will enjoy perusing this coffee table book. AUTHORBIO: Bill Edwards is a noted expert on pressed, carnival, and opalescent glass, and has been authoring books since 1975. He now co-authors books with expert Mike Carwile. His knowledge is unsurpassed in the glass world. He has written books on Carnival Glass, Northwood Carnival Glass, Millersburg Glass, Opalescent glass, Rarities of Carnival Glass, and Pressed Glass.

This review is from: Carnival Glass: The Best of the Best (Identification Guide to Rare and Unusual Pieces) (Hardcover)
I read the prior reviews before buying this book. I have found it very helpful in buying carnival glass. Without it, I would have been somewhat lost. I have a strong desire to buy the D Doty book on the subject as well now.

This review is from: Carnival Glass: The Best of the Best (Identification Guide to Rare and Unusual Pieces) (Hardcover)
The pictures were great, but there were no prices included. Very dissapointed - waste of my money. I'll need to read the description more closely!
