This review is from: The Collector's Encyclopedia of Occupied Japan Collectibles: 5th Series (Paperback)

This popular book (128 pages) has been updated with 1999 prices. It features 100's of sharp, full color photos. Sufficient text is provided covering topics from angels and cherubs, animals, ash trays, children, dinnerware, elves, figurines, lamps, to paper, pitchers, planters, salt and pepper shakers, toys, dolls, and vases. Complete table of contents makes it easy to find items. Every collectible is fully described. A great reference work for collectors of Occupied Japan.

4.0 out of 5 stars Many pictures, regrettably not so much information., June 16, 2000

This review is from: The Collector's Encyclopedia of Occupied Japan Collectibles: 5th Series (Paperback)

This is agueably one of the best books in the collectors series. It does a very good job without being overly large and heavy. I would like to see more information on each item but agree with the author's decision to put in a lot of pictures in preference to a lot of words. Information can be found elsewhere and these pictures are great and will put the reader on the right track.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dissappointing, January 1, 2001

It could have been better. How about just categorizing one particular part on each book on the series, instead of having a little of this and a little of that?
