Product Description
Every single item is illustrated, described, and priced, with values ranging from pocket money prices to "Record breakers", and each has been available for sale in auction houses and dealers from around the world within the last 12 months - providing a cross-section of the current market. A feast of information is provided, including histories of objects and makers, market assessments, and buying tips, plus lists of collector's clubs, auctioneers, and specialist dealers. This year the 80 subject categories, with additional sub-sections, include features on bicycles and automobilia. In Books we look at modern first editions, gardening, and children's books. There are sections devoted to dolls, comics, teddy bears, toys, penknives, money-boxes, and pigs, along with the more traditional categories such as ceramics, silver, and glass
