About this product

Product Information

Thanks to Antiques Roadshow, the highest rated, long running prime-time series on PBS, with millions of viewers a week, we are a nation seeking fortune in our attics. And thanks to Antiques Roadshow Primer, with 572,000 copies in print, we are highly antiques-literate. But there's another audience out there, too, showing up ever more frequently on Antiques Roadshow--those obsessive, bitten-by-the-bug collectors. Bring on the Maltese Falcon posters!Celebrating the collectible--that 20th-century object that brings with it less monetary value than passion, nostalgia, quirky appeal, and just plain pleasure--Antiques Roadshow Collectibles focuses on 12 major areas that inspire both the thrill of the chase and the thrill of discovery: furniture, photographs, posters and illustration art, costume jewelry and wristwatches, dolls, toys, advertising memorabilia, sports, glass and pottery, and more. A guide to value rather than price, it is packed with a wealth of information that will help turn any interested flea market fiend into a first-class collector. From the innovative design of Bertoia chairs to the high-quality crafting of costume jewely to the surprising variety of PEZ dispensers, here are 416 pages brimming with information. Bound into the book is a 32-page full-color section, while hundreds of black-and-white photographs illustrate every chapter. There are Antiques Roadshow discoveries, tips from experts and appraisers, the steps to becoming a focused collector--even how to use pieces without compromising their value. After all, isn't it more fun to eat off the Fiestaware?

Antiques Roadshow book, the Holy Bible to Collectors.
I have always been interested in collecting. From a young boy, my father got me started collecting baseball cards. This soon led to collecting baskeball and football cards as well. If you are a collector you know once you've been bitten by the 'collecting bug', there is no cure and it only gets worse. Soon I evolved into sport memoribilia, autographs, games used and vintage. Now, I watch Antiques Roadshow almost religously and am so fasinated by not only the items, but the extensive knowledge of the experts. This led me to expand my own collecting prowess in hopes of being able to spot 'good deals' in not only my collecting area, but in all areas, and then be able to knowledgably resell these 'gems' to collectors in their field. I can make some money as well as make someone's day. This book, written by the very experts who appear on Antiques Roadshow has become to my the 'Holy Bible' of collecting. It covers everything from American and European porcelin to advertising memoribilia to vintage toys just to name a few. This book goes into detail on the major manufactures in every field as well as providing real life examples and auction values. This book has not only helped expand my own knowledge of a passion I have had for years, but it has given me the knowledge to be able to buy and resell items outside my own collecting area for profit. Thanks ebay and anitiques roadshow for providing such a safe, honest, and reliable online gathering place for collectors. Sincerly, MoonDawgxxRead full review

Doesn't Get Much Bigger or Better
A friend asked me to sell a lot of her parents' collectibles on ebay. I needed a book that would cover dolls, porcelain figurines, glassware, crockery and vintage jewelry with lots of photos for comparison. I found this book in the library and devoured it. Then renewed it and read it again and again. I hated to return it to the library, so I bought my own copy! It lives on the bookshelf next to my recliner. There's always another collectible to read up on!
