By 

Murano Addict (New Zealand) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Murano Glass (1910-1970) Theme and Variations (Hardcover)

This is an excellent reference with great photos and a section which shows the makers labels and signatures. Really useful book, recommend it for all collectors of Murano from the 1950's/60's.
