5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best collectables guide books around,
By Kali "bengaligirl" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Miller's: Collectables: Price Guide 2001/2002 (Hardcover)
If you are a collector, amateur or serious then this book is for you. It is one of the best around simply because it is easy to use, concise, colourful and downright practical. Okay, so it doesn't list every collectable in the world but no one book will do that. What this book will do for you is give you an idea of the cost of many popular collectibles as well as one offs that occasionally come on to the market. This is also a fun book just to browse through to see what is "in" and what is "not in" in the heady world of antiques-to-be and antiques that are already established. A good all round book on a hard to write about subject. As an added bonus it comes out each year so the suject is constantly being updated.
