Good book. Small enough to be portable. Illustrations are good with wonderful information about the piece,i.e., colors, maker, year and value.

Don't Bother,
By nightshade (Nor Ca, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Standard Companion to Carnival Glass (Standard Companion to Carnival Glass: Identification & Values) (Paperback)
The price may be right but you get what you pay for. The pictures are lousy, there is little information, and this book looks like a school project.
