Antique and Collectible Dictionary

Here is the ultimate guide for the collector, dealer, and the just plain curious. This dictionary includes more than 5,300 entries of craftsmen, brand names, silversmiths, tools, manufacturers, terms makers, artists, words, and everything else in the world of antiques and collectibles. There are even definitions of more than 300 different colors used by Sears and Roebuck in mail-order catalogs during the 1920s. Robert and Claudette Reed have been doing research and writing professionally on these subjects for some 20 years. Also included in this comprehensive resource are hundreds of photographs. The Reeds are the authors of more than a dozen books including Vintage Postcards for the Holidays, now in its second edition. No values.
