I am giving this to my mom who is an antique dealer. I/we come across small/tall glasses all the time in our travels. I thought this would be a perfect companion for her! sometimes we see the same ole thing..but sometimes you don't, and it would be nice to have a reference. so this is perfect! this particular book was in great condition too!
I was a little disappointed in the book. It was mostly "character-related" glasses. The pictures are too small. It's nice that they are in full-color, but I don't want to have to use a magnifying glass to actually see what is on them! The pictures are provided in "plates." One example is a 3-5/8" wide x 1-5/8" wide plate showing 5 glasses and 6 mugs. For even better perspective, the height of the actual pictures referred to herein range from 1/4" to 5/8".
I love buying expensive books for almost nothing. This is the way to go. Book is perfect for my needs
