I must have been the idiot the book was written for
5 Jan 2001
Format:Paperback
Having been in the antiques business for over twenty years -- buying and selling, owning my own antiques store -- I made the assumption that I know something about antiques. I purchased this book before Christmas and decided I was the idiot this book was written for. It is very well written, funny, insightful and clear. The sections were applicable to my needs, and to put it very simply, I have learned a great deal in a very short time. I will keep this book on hand for reference, it purports to be for idiots, but the benefit will be for all levels -- regardless of your expertise, you will find something that you did not know.

This is it.

Yes, this is just the book you are looking for. Whether an experienced antique enthusiast looking for a quick reference, or a novice looking for a jump start (like I am) - the Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying and Selling Antiques is informative and concise and better yet, a pleasure to read. How can a study guide be so much fun?! Helpful pictures and "AntiqClues" are found throughout.
Emyl Jenkins tells you what it is, how to find it and (the fun part) how to investigate your treasure before you take it home. The quick reference card is invaluable.
