Collector's Encyclopedia Of Bookends

Bookends have evolved into a well-established genre of interest amongst collectors, antiques dealers, and aficionados of the decorative arts. Since the publication of the "Collector's Guide to Bookends, published by Collector Books in 1998, knowledge about bookend sculptors, founders, and subject matter has continued to grow. This single volume is by far the most detailed and authoritative text published on the topic to date. Containing more than 2,500 photographs and entries, numerous examples of never-before-published bookends are provided with updated information about rarity, value, sculptors, and founders. The full range of collectible bookends is represented, including metalware, porcelain, glass, and works of assorted major pottery makers. This volume will surely be the definitive standard reference for antique and collectible bookends.Kuritzky, Louis is the author of 'Collector's Encyclopedia Of Bookends', published 2005 under ISBN 9781574324334 and ISBN 1574324330.
