It's a 'must' for any serious collector's specialty collection,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fenton Art Glass: A Centennial of Glass Making 1907 to 2007 (Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Hardcover)
Any collector of Fenton art glass and many a collection catering to glass collectors will find this an invaluable review, offering glass from all of Fenton's decades of production under one cover - some 100 years of glassmaking history. 3,000 pieces are profiled in over 600 color photos, along with their latest values and examples of changing styles. It's a 'must' for any serious collector's specialty collection, especially those of glassware collectors.

This review is from: Fenton Art Glass: A Centennial of Glass Making 1907 to 2007 (Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Hardcover)
This book explains how do detect Fenton glass very well. This is a difficult glass to identify sometimes because of the lack of markings. Very good book for the new or old collector. Would recommend to anyone!
