Fostoria American: A Complete Guide Fourth Edition By Sidney P. Seligson

This newest edition, written by the late Sidney P. Seligson, is chock full of pictures and information on the 400+ pieces comprising the Fostoria American line (including the contract British Jobling pieces), it’s current re-releases, plus look-alikes from Indiana Glass Company and Jeannette Glass Company. Also featured are a chapter on color with 34 examples, Fostoria’s American Lady pattern, close-ups of certain Fostoria American pieces that are often confused, examples of severe and normal grinding on piece bottoms, mystery pieces, small cube pieces, Seligson’s unique numbering system (which is often used for piece identification at auctions), piece rarity ranking system, a current price guide, as well as tons of need-to-know pointers not found in any other book on the subject. Great for inventorying, insurance and just plain collecting. You’ll be glad you bought this one!

This review is from: Fostoria American : A Complete Guide (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
This is the 4th edition of this book. I previously had purchased all three of the other editions. I am a major collector of Fostoria American Glassware, and this book tells it all. Very helpful in describing items. Highly recommend.....

1.0 out of 5 stars poor pictures, December 28, 2011
This review is from: Fostoria American : A Complete Guide (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
I thought this book would really be good, however the pictures are poorly done, they look like he took a picture of a picture,mostly black and white and not very detailed. this book is way over priced and I was very disapointed all way around.The Author does not teach you how to tell if you have a Fostoria item or not,he doesnt tell how to detect a fake, dont spend your money on this high priced book you will be sorry!
