I am relatively new to collecting cookie jars and felt like I have all the books I can find about the topics. Many of them were published in the 1980's or the 1990's and so the price guides are off by quite a bit. This guide is Awesome! It has wonderful clear pictures, the current price, when to look for reproductions on a certain one, as well as all sorts of other helpful details. It is alphabetically organized and well written. By far the best book I have. I highly recommend to all. You won't be disappointed.
cookie jar book was as described.great tool.now i have a great book that not only shows original cookie jars but how to tell the difference from reproductions!!
I am a collector with most of the relevant guides. As this was a new one, which I felt was long overdue, I was very excited. However, this book falls far short. First, the author obviously accessed a few collections, and focused on those without seeking out many other jars, some more widely available, to include. Second, it seems to have taken the word of the owners of those collections as to current cookie jar values. You can take a look at Ebay to know the prices in this book aren't at all realistic. Third, there is no index, so if you don't already have an idea as to what a jar is, then you are out of luck. The best thing about this book is good photos.I'd still go with the Schneider book or the Roerig trilogy.
I purchased this book for a family member that is nuts for cookie jars. He was really happy to have such a personal gift! The book had tons of great photos and information.
Perfectly described condition. Very pleased. Arrived on time. I had never seen this bookbefore so I was very happy to find the book.
