Customer Reviews

Great fix-it book.

I wish I'd had this book 40 years ago. An amazing compilation of general how-to for antiques but also every day items that need TLC. Helful hints like: don't let the dog use the antique Chinese rug for a restroom, it ruins the value! It would make a great wedding gift.

Excellent in-depth coverage of the topic

If you're someone faced with antique for the first time (like I was), this is exactly what you need. The book addresses all the repairs I'll have to do on my furniture and silverware, lists all the necessary material and tools as well as documents the procedures you have to follow. Highly recommended.
