5.0 out of 5 stars Great Photos, 13 Oct 2000

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Miller's Collecting Furniture: the Facts at Your Fingertips (Hardcover)

Millers is a clear, concise book and very well organized. My experience in the past with antique books is that there are very few photos of the items they are describing. This format is great if you already know the basics about antiques but it makes in almost impossible for a beginner to identify and price items just from a description. Millers provides tons of colour photos, with brief descriptions of what items were used for, what makes them valuable, what things devalue them and an estimate value. This format makes for quick and easy identification of hundreds of pieces. This is the perfect beginner/intermediate antique resource guide.
