The book is a good reference for the figurines however there are more figurines than what is shown or listed. I would have like to have seen it be more comprehensive for the amount I paid for it.

I have recently begun collecting Josef Originals. I only like the ones that "grab me," so I tend to bid to win...even though I may be overpaying. I got this book to help me understand more about the dolls. The pictures are clear and large, and it takes all the guesswork out of bidding. Prices are listed so you get an idea of the value. It has been a great tool, but there is one problem...I found too many of these that I will now have to watch for and win! Let the buyer beware....
The book is informative with lots of colorful pictures. There are alot of Josef Originals that are not in the book however, but without owning one of the previos editions, I am not sure if this is better than past books. I like the history of the origins of the Josef Original line but I think it should have focused more on whats out there rather than just what the writer owned.
This a very interesting book for those who collect or want to start collecting. It is not all inclusive. But does have great pictures and some approximant prices, which was what I was looking for.
This collector book (Josef Originals) has colorful, detailed pictures, updated prices and helpful information. I am very impressed. Superb job on compiling information for this book!
