I obtained this book via Goodreads Giveaway.The first thing that struck me was the size, it's about the dimensions of a folded roadmap, making it perfect to stash in your glove box on the Saturday rounds of flea market and yard sale outings.The first thing that struck my 4-yo granddaughter was the pictures, it's full of helpful pictures. She was especially taken with the sections on Barbies and videogames. Lord help me, I think she's going to make at least a portion of her Christmas list from this book.I liked that it had helpful hints throughout, in colored cartoon bubbles, and that it lists prices for many of the items, so people don't get taken advantage of.Be aware that it is small print, and required my reading glasses...but then, it would have to be small to put all that in a size that would fit in a man's back pocket, right?It was extremely well written and I think "Picker's Pocket Guide - Toys: How to Pick Antiques Like a Pro" makes a nice addition to one's home library reference shelf.
I received this book from a Goodreads giveaway. If you are person, (like me), who likes to find treasures at the yard sales and flea markets or just an Ebay buyer or seller you will want this book. It helps you find the valuable collectible toys so you don't end up with a bunch of junk.
My son loves to antique shop and he loves all the Picker's Guides
