4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Guide, but Expensive, 2 Nov 2007

By	J. Chippindale (England) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

This book endeavors to give the owner a guide to the prices of paperweights, but as the book is American the reader will have to make the appropriate calculations and also take into consideration the American paperweight market against the British. In my own experience, Americans are usually happy to pay more for things than their British counterparts.

On the face of it the book is superb with a myriad of colour photographs showing some of the most exquisite paperweights ever produced, but on closer inspection many of the said photographs have appeared in other books on the subject.

If this is the only book you are ever going to own on the subject then go for it. However if you already own several books on the subject you will probably find that a lot of the material in this book is duplicated in previous offerings. Also the fact that a book that offers pricing information is out of date virtually from the day of publication is another factor to consider. Prices are relatively current at the moment, but for how long. Don't get me wrong, this is a superb book but it is expensive and in some areas repeats information from other books.
