Another great collection of information for people involved in buying, selling and tradeing of collectible items. The book gives enough info so you can identify the piece and also will have an idea of the value. It is a great book to have BEFORE you have a yard/tag sale so you do not end up like some of the people they snicker about on Antiques Roadshow!
