Kovels' Antiques & Collectibles Price Guide 2009: America's Bestselling and Most Up-to-Date Antiques Annual (Kovels' Antiques and Collectibles Price List)
Product Description: America's most respected authorities on antiques have compiled the biggest, most thorough, and best-organized price guide on the market, featuring 42,000 appraiser-approved ACTUAL prices in 700 categories—and more than 2,500 color pictures!
Everyone from the casual collector to the antiques professional can find the value of what he or she owns quickly and easily with the help of Kovels'—the most trusted price guide available, now in its 41st year and better than ever.
Kovels' has consistently outsold all other guides based on its reliable, up-to-the-minute, well-organized, and wide-ranging information. It features more tips, marks, logos, information, and photographs—of items in ALL price ranges—than any of the competition. And unlike other guides, Kovels' lists only the actual prices for which items were purchased, not dealers' estimates.
Organized into categories that collectors most want, from Depression Glass, Dolls, and Jewelry to Furniture, Porcelain, and Sports Memorabilia, this photo-filled guide includes user-friendly indexes, cross-references, and expert comments and tips throughout, empowering users to buy, sell, and collect with confidence.
These guides are never great price guides Great for information, a bit inflated on the prices! This book is great for identifying certain pieces, but the prices aren't always set in reality. If you want to sell your collection and you're looking for real numbers, do some completed auction research on ebay or google the folks at vintagerarestuff. But for identifying, it is really nice :-)
Kovel Guides are the old standard I been getting these guides for the past 20 years. There a good basic guide when you need them. I prefer actual sales information to get a value for something. The only thing, I don't like about them are that they don't have photo for most of the items they list. Sure they put some pictures in the book. But an item without a picture, is only a guess what you think it is.
