Kovels' Antiques & Collectibles Price List 2008: The Bestselling Price Guide in America- 40th Anniversary Edition (Kovels' Antiques and Collectibles Price List)
Product Description: Kovels' has consistently outsold all other guides based on its reliable, up-to-date, well-organized, and wide-ranging information. The 40th anniversary edition is better than ever—it's the biggest, most useful and colorful yet, with five times as many photos as before, plus more tips, marks, logos, and other information that collectors want most.
Thoughtfully organized for maximum ease, the categories include everything from Depression Glass, Dolls, and Jewelry to Furniture, Porcelain, and Sports Memorabilia. Indices and cross-references make it more user-friendly than ever, and the Kovels' expert commentary throughout empowers users to buy, sell, and collect with confidence. This edition includes an exclusive report on the previous year's record-setting prices.
Unlike most of its competitors, whose focus is primarily English, Kovels' covers all of the American and international items of most interest to collectors. Perhaps that is why the Miami Herald has called Kovels' Price List "indispensable."
Fun To Read Really enjoyed thumbing through this book. Helped answer questions I've had for years regarding potential "treasures". Easy to use with lots of pictures.
Kovels Antique & Collectibles Price List 2008 This is a nice reference book. Not as complete as I wished. Sometimes difficult to find specific items. However, it is solid and full of information. A nice reference to add to your collection.
Kovels - Always Useful For information on a wide variety of antiques or collectibles, it's almost as good as Warman's. But, really, I like having both books available for use. I've found, however, that if I know what I'm interested in, I'm better off spending the money and getting a book specific to that antique or collectible (if there's one available.) Nevertheless, a good reference book to get someone started in collecting. Prices listed vary greatly from what one finds on internet market; you need to be aware of this with some antiques or collectibles.
kovel's 2008 price list is INVALUABLE The Kovel's book is by far the most detailed, entertaining and informative price book I have ever owned. It helps us sellers and buyers and on line shoppers understand real-time market values. I like that it is based on ACTUAL prices. ( after all things are really only worth what someone will pay). It helped me identify things that I was unsure of with some really clear four-color photographs. The book is packed with TONS of pictures! It also is easy to find things and the Kovel's seem to have a knack to know how to organize such a large group of potential categories. Overall, this book was worth every penny in terms of showing me what things are worth and what they are. No other place I have found that can do both so well.
