Reader Reviews
A very disorganized and vague book. Extremely hard to decipher. I had bought several peices of antiques when I started working at an antique store. I wanted to know if what I had was worth anything. This book gave me NO help at all in determining this. It was a complete waste of my money. Nothing is organized. For example, I bought a pineapple shaped glass decanter and instead of listing them under one subject they were scattered all through the book all in different places. Most of the items do not have pictures and these items discription are so vague that there is no way a normal person could determine what it means. The pictures they do have are black and white except for one small section. I was very disappointed with this book. There is no way it will help me figure out if any of the purchases I made are valuable.
