From Library Journal
Because unscrupulous sales practices can occur just as commonly in an art gallery as in a used car showroom, Bamberger compares the purchase of art works to buying an automobile. Skillfully cutting through the double-talk and hard sell of today's art merchants, he encourages consumers to equip themselves by asking questions and learning the jargon of the trade before they buy. The author then reveals how to seek out the right information from libraries and art museums and gives tips for acquiring art from budget sources such as commercial art or architectural firms. Bamberger goes too far, however, when he declares that plates from books and periodicals would be attractive when framed and that pieces of driftwood and rusted metal make great substitutes for fine paintings. For public libraries.
