1 comments about Collector's Guide to Art Deco: Identification & Values.
- This book was published in 1997, but values are updated for the year 2,000. Wonderful 224 page book contains more than 600 large, full color, sharp photos. Major topics range from bar ware, clocks, dresser accessories, to smoking, statutes, tableware and vases. It contains much text on the origins and development of Art Deco, and each section contains useful information. It also includes facts on reproductions, manufacturers and marks and a comprehensive bibliography. Art Deco collectors will enjoy and refer to this volume often.

1 comments about Art Deco Ceramics (Shire Library).
- This book is small but sweet!
In Just 40 pages there must be about 100 photos, and all you need to know about the major designers, and also a few of the ones that are less well known. I was impressed. No flouncy language - no hyping Clarice Cliff - but the facts as you want them, and all set in the context of the social change of the period. Obvious that this author comes from a design history background rather than being a collector - stuff is put into context. Information provided on dating, and also a helpful list of collector club addresses. If you want to know about Clarice Cliff, Susie Cooper, Charlotte Rhead, Shelley, Keith Murray andmore then this is the colour guide for you. First rate!

1 comments about Hagen-Renaker through the Years.
- This book, Hagen-Renaker Through the Years, continues where the first book left off, with over 450 completly different photos. This book has a great section on how to identify Hagen-Renakers, how to date them, and how to recognize imitations. In addition, there are wonderful photos of one-of-a-kind and test pieces that have never been seen in public before. Also, several large color photos describing the variation in the colors of their popular horses. Not a revision of the first HR book, but a most-welcome sequel.

1 comments about The Dictionary of Minton.
- Too good to go on the coffee table!. This is a great reference for those Minton collectors, and historians. There are not many books on Minton available, but this is a MUST HAVE for your library. The *only* issue I have is that it does not have the famous Minton "seaweed pattern" mentioned anywhere. Photos are great, and overall it is well researched.

1 comments about Stemware of the 20th Century: The Top 200 Patterns (Stemware of the 20th Century).
- The photographs of the etching patterns in this book are deporable. I know that taking photos of clear glass to display the etching pattern is not the easiest thing to do - I do it on Ebay all the time - but the attempt failed miserably here. I call it a waste of my money.
