ANTIQUE SILVER AND SILVER COLLECTING
by John Culme and John Stang, Hamlyn Publishing Group, Ltd., England, 1973.
“’Our aim,’ say the authors, ‘has been to impart the knowledge which will allow a collector to rely more confidently on his own judgment.’  The first chapters deal with the marvelous English and American silver of the 18th century, highly prized for its fine craftsmanship, the largest part of the book is devoted to the long-neglected and underrated 19th century which is now becoming so popular.”  This book will benefit both the novice and advanced collector or dealer of antique silver.
8.5” x 11.5” hardback with dust cover in very good condition.  96 pages.
