I refer to this work regularly! Well detailed pictures with excellent research and background information. My only complaint is that the prices could use some updating - they are somewhat low on the better pieces. On second thought - keep the prices low! This book will assist you in identifying your plastic jewellery treasures, and will give you a thorough background into the origins and designs of vintage to contemporary plastic jewellery. For the next addition, would like to see a quick reference guide on quick identification of different varieties of commonly encountered plastics. Ms. Baker does not include references to common tests for bakelite, lucite etc... which would prove extremely useful. Overall, a book that will remain off my shelves and in constant use for years to come. Look forward to the next edition!
