5.0 out of 5 stars McKeown Is One Of The Ultimate Authorities on Cameras, April 25, 2002

By

This review is from: McKeown's Price Guide to Antique & Classic Cameras 2001-2002 (Price Guide to Antique and Classic Cameras) (Paperback)

Jim McKeown's books are the most comprehensive sources of accurate information on cameras in the world. Period. Other books may give more information on specific cameras, but if you are to have but one source to refer to,choose McKeown. He will never disappoint you.
Another wonderful camera expert and writer (they don't always go together) is Ivor Matanle. His two books are treasures. But if you want facts, go with McKeown. You will return over and over to his book. Speaking face to face with him is most rewarding. You realize you are learning from one of the world authorities.
Wonderful pictures, camera values (prices) rarity,etc. This book contains cameras even experts haven't heard about. But McKeown is the expert of experts, and you will keep this large,heavy, over 900 page book near just for the fun of reading it. Am I enthused? Yes! I have bought his books since the 4th edition in 1983-84, and always been pleased.
A lengthy review? Yes, but this book deserves much praise!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Camera Collector's Bible, October 15, 1999

By 

CHARLES R. SCRIBNER (Muskogee, Oklahoma USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: McKeown's Price Guide to Antique and Classic Cameras 1997-1998 (10th Ed) (Paperback)

If you collect cameras this is a very important reference tool. The pictures and descriptions and the given values are the best help available. I have been using this book since it was smaller than the Reader's Digest and now it has over 10,000 entries including movie and non-cameras.

5.0 out of 5 stars The McKeown books are great., January 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mckeown's Price Guide to Antique and Collectable Cameras: 1999 (Cloth) (Hardcover)

Obviously, I haven't read this latest edition of the price guide since it won't be available until April. I have purchased two previous editions and they were worth the money. I look forward to the release of the latest edition. Every camera collector should have this price guide. Unlike Lind's List Camera Price Guide and Master Data Catalog, this book gives good information and pictures to help you identify cameras and grow in knowledge. I haven't utilized my Lind's book, but I take my McKeown's book on every collecting expedition.
