Collecting small antiques can be of absorbing interest, partly because the items are easy to display and partly because they can be found in a great variety of places, including antique shops, public auctions, bric-a-brac stalls, garage sales and flea markets. Each title in this series is written by an expert in his or her chosen subject...with a wealth of practical advice to help the novice over any initial hurdles, guidance on prices and over 100 illustrations to help with identification.
