2 comments about Blue & White Pottery (Miller's Collector's Guides).

1. Lots of information and pictures, written in a breezy, informative, energetic style. I learned a minimum of one new thing on every page. I only wish there were more pages. The pictures are good but too small, as is the caption print. I don't understand why the English produce their outstanding guides to antiques in such small formats. Full of tips on how to spot subtle defects and repairs, and not-so-obvious features that can enhance or detract from value. The American edition has price information in US dollars. Get this book and read it and it will add to your enjoyment of your collection or get you started on one!



2. This book is set up to accomodate the beginning collector as well as the experienced. Found among its 64 pages are an introduction to blue and white pottery, guidlines for care and repair, a list of dealers, an index, a glossery, and suggested reading lists. Most of all the great color pictures and pricing guidelines make for interesting reading. Heavier cover and glossy pages make it a permanent part of a research library.

1. Starts out with basics, such as patent numbers/dates, dates U.S. coins were introduced, seal of approval dates, and much more. Moves on to US Mail (dates zones, then ZIP codes were introduced). When telephone styles and area code usage began. On to inventions of all sorts (e.g. such diversified things as the ballpoint pens and escalators). Dates the initial production of materials, for example aluminum or stainless steel; the china and glass groups include brands and dated marks. A "made in" section refers to the country of manufacture, both American and foreign items. A cartoon character section dates numerous trademarks. This is followed by dated brand name logos. And it goes on and on with useful dating information. A must for all collectors and dealers in collectibles.

1. The creative genius of Faberge is brought to life in this exciting hands on book. Eight jigsaw puzzles intrigue the senses into the complexities of these designs. Assembling the puzzles, increases the awareness of magnintude of Faberge's artistic accomplishments. They bring to life the opulence and grandeur of the Russian Tzars!

1 comments about Dictionary of Blue & White Printed Pottery Vol. 2 (Dictionary of Blue & White Printed Pottery, 1780-1880).

1. The most comprehensive references on transferware pottery are basically boring lists: You use them to reference a specific item, and not much else.
   This book is so much more.
   It's a top reference work, but is also the sort of book you can put on the coffee table - or curl up with in bed for an absorbing couple of hours reading.
   Highly recommended.
