Published by Gramercy Publishing Company (a division of Crown Publishers), 1962
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This Antique Collector's Dictionary is a comprehensive mid-20th-century reference work designed for both amateur and advanced collectors, defining approximately 1,600 terms across furniture, ceramics, glass, silver, clocks, textiles, metalwork, and decorative arts. Compiled by internationally recognized authorities Donald Cowie and Keith Henshaw, the volume reflects a scholarly yet practical approach, with entries arranged alphabetically for ease of use and supported by clear explanatory text. Illustrated throughout with photographs and line drawings, the book emphasizes visual identification alongside terminology, making it especially useful for collectors navigating antique shops, auctions, and estates. The scope spans English and Continental traditions, with attention to materials, forms, stylistic periods, and manufacturing techniques. Numerous entries address diagnostic features, helping readers distinguish authentic objects from later reproductions or altered pieces. This 1962 Gramercy edition was published by arrangement with Crown Publishers and Arco Publishing, intended primarily for the American (and British) reader. It reflects the postwar expansion of serious antiques collecting in the United States, when accessible yet authoritative reference works were increasingly sought by collectors outside formal museum or academic settings. The present copy retains its original dust jacket and hardcover binding, offering a well-preserved example of a classic collector's handbook that remains useful today for terminology, historical context, and period insight. It is an appealing reference for collectors of antiques, decorative arts, or mid-century reference publishing.
