An amazing anthology of one of the most heavily merchandised TV shows in history. Scores of pictures on every page representing virtually every item ever produced connected with the band and show "The Monkees." Premiums, display items and the rarest collectibles assosciated with the group are all here in living color. Even a section warning novice collectors about bootleg/unlicensed items from recent years. This is the best book on collectibles Ive ever seen.

With a collection the size of Marty Eck's, there was no doubt in my mind this book would be awesome. The book has all color photos (over 700), and contains EVERYTHING (even shipping boxes for the gum card boxes and halloween costumes!). Values listed are accurate (although I disagreed slightly with the Monkees LPs). Great book for even the casual fan...Eck did an exceptional job!

I also know the Author very well and I am glad that he finally put out the one and only Monkees Price guide. I do recommend it. I have bought stuff from the author personally and he really know this stuff.

I am late on reviewing this book but had to comment. I LOVE this book. Very goog work and research! Great photography! It's so nice to see someone put this much effort in a Monkees collectible book. My only complaint is the records are not valued correctly. We need a Monkees record collecting guide. If not for values, just to see the great world wide covers of the albums, single and EP's that differ from country to country.

Marty Eck ( Is that his real name?)bought most of the items in this book. Since most of us could never afford such a collection or FIND some of these gems, this is a great coffee table book. Again with putting values on collectibles, any kinds, is a matter of supply and demand.

To me, Ebay is where I usually can find recent values. Being a Monkees record collector, I am thinking of joining forces with a major colector in the UK to create the book I always wanted. This book is a great asset to anyone's Monkees collection! Buy it!

I love this book it has everything you need to know what is very valuable. There's a lot of interesting stuff in it that was very popular and sold very well back then when the Monkees were quite hot......So I also consider this book a classic because it has so much information in it I just love it......
