This hardback book on "Opalescent Glass" is preowned but is like new. It is a revised edition 2000. The cover has minor shelf wear. I do not see any markings inside the book but I did not look at each page. This book would be great for that collector.

From the Publisher:

Twenty-five years after William Heacock sparked an Opalescent glass collecting trend with his book Victorian Colored Pattern Glass Book II, Opalescent Glass for A to Z and 13 years after his Book 9, Cranberry Glass, JoAnn Elmore has revised and updated these reference gems into one incredible work. Elmore edited all areas of the text and provided much new information on patterns found in the original book, as well as adding upwards of 75 more patterns.

Several discoveries from the influential but often overlooked Dugan factory will also interest collectors and historians. New black and white illustrations, catalog reprints and company advertisements proliferate. 1300 opalescent and cranberry opalescent items are pictured in beautiful color. Several special sections address topics from original manufacturer's names to a color illustration on the creation of cranberry opalescent glass. A revised thumbnail history of each opalescent manufacturer will be a useful guide for all collectors.
