Kovels' has consistently outsold all other guides based on its reliable, up-to-date, well-organized, and wide-ranging information. The 40th anniversary edition is better than ever—it's the biggest, most useful and colorful yet, with five times as many photos as before, plus more tips, marks, logos, and other information that collectors want most.
Thoughtfully organized for maximum ease, the categories include everything from Depression Glass, Dolls, and Jewelry to Furniture, Porcelain, and Sports Memorabilia. Indices and cross-references make it more user-friendly than ever, and the Kovels' expert commentary throughout empowers users to buy, sell, and collect with confidence. This edition includes an exclusive report on the previous year's record-setting prices.
Unlike most of its competitors, whose focus is primarily English, Kovels' covers all of the American and international items of most interest to collectors. Perhaps that is why the Miami Herald has called Kovels' Price List"indispensable."
