Horribly hard to find and super expensive when you do. But this is a work of a life time. Nearly a complete guide to treen and woodenware. Cover the Old Country and the early USA. An indepth guide. Very scholarly and detailed. The history of many things now considered passe are incredible. The only thing that I don't like are the b/w photos. But this was coming from a time when color illustration was just not available. A must for the serious appraiser or someone who deals with high end woodenware.
