3.0 out of 5 stars Another Antique Trader Teaser, October 30, 2005

By	S. Sheresh (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As with most Antique Trader (AT) reference guides, this one covers a broad range of art pottery artists and manufacturers. However, as is again typical of the AT guides, the scope is quite ambitious, as is the content. The pieces are rare and pricey, and there is too great a variety at the expense of thoroughness. It's a good book for getting a basic range of the different price levels and styles of artists and manufacturers, but if you want to seriously collect or deal in any specific pottery line, you'd do better to find a book devoted to that particular pottery.
