Book Overview

An avid group of loyal collectors, spanning generations and races, can't get enough of these rare and quirky antiques. Now in its fourth edition, this indispensable field guide provides many additional objects and completely updated values for a culinary tour of popular kitchen collectibles featuring black characterizations. The captions and text contain information about the sizes and approximate dating of the hundreds of pieces shown, and give tips on avoiding the fraudulent reproductions that increasingly plague the market.
