i didn't know that such a book was on the market, when i found it in west virgina at antique store, which i was looking for head vase's.. that is a nother store.... ok the book silhouette collectibles by shirley mace is very yes very infomative..she tells of the factory where they are made. she also gives great care about those who collect and the fun it gives... also on a buying note there is a updated price guide ..avalible the isbn# for that is 0-9633674-0-4 .. i can't believe the way people collect these gems, i like the convex glass over the flat glass silhouettes. benton glass co. is the most often found in my area coming from cleveland oh prints marked with bg are form benton glass other company's are in the book too.. this is a very short synopsos of the book there is at least 100 pic. of varies silhouette's in this book with great reference to others and useful info on getting silhouette repaired and the like. happy hunting on that odd pice that you need to mat! ch we all have those...

Many silhouettes are shown in this book but by no means all of them. What this book offers is a good coverage of the companies that produced these great pictures. You will be able to distiguish one company from another and when you find a silhouette you will be able to determine which company made it. Dishes are also included in the book. The prices are not usable.
