4 comments about The Pendelfin Collectors Handbook.

  1. This book has been a great in helping me collect my bunnies and their value. I can"t wait for the second edition.


  2. A history book,a guide book,a reference book and price guide what more could a collector want in a book! I continually refer to mine and never tire of reading it. I can honestly say it was money well spent and can't wait for the next edition.


  3. I could not have expected more. This book not only gives you color pictures of all the Rabbits it gives background and market values I have also been able to learn alot of the history and tales behind some of my favorites. I will also be looking forward to the next book


  4. Thank you for producing such a wonderful book. It has been by far the best and most helpful book on Pendelfin.

    It will certainly make it a lot easier to collect the more rarer rabbits as I now know what to look for.

    It might be nice to have a folder or something similar to store records of rabbits bought and the value - that way you can just add updates when rabbits are introduced rather than having some information stored in Issue 1 and the rest in Issue 2.

    I can't wait for issue 2!!!

5 comments about Jane's Guns Recognition Guide, 2e (Jane's Guns Recognition Guide).

  1. Good reference for the price listed (used). Good format. I would prefer another design of the content, but it is ok.


  2. I have a very consistent library on weapons.
    This book is a useful quick reference source.


  3. FIRST THOUGHTS:

    I decided to read this volume to distract myself while chaperoning my spouse and youngster during a sultry day at Six Flags theme park. After about 30 minutes I realized that the book had to be put away as I found people passing by me either gave me a thumbs-up or a head shaking frown. Can I be sure it was the book? ANSWER AFTER THE REVIEW!

    ABOUT THE BOOK: LOOKS LIKE A J.C. PENNEY CATALOG FOR GUNS WITH EDITING ERRORS

    ORGANIZATION OF "JANE'S GUNS RECOGNITION GUIDE:

    GUN TYPES - PISTOLS, REVOLVERS, SUBMACHINE GUNS,BOLT ACTION RIFLES, AUTOMATIC RIFLES, SHOTGUNS, MACHINE GUNS;

    -* MFG. INDEX, BRAND NAME INDEX - Pages 419-464

    Within each gun-type, aphabetical organization by country is used. Essentially, 1 gun gets 1 page with a color photo and also includes a short blurb about the piece and a blue-outlined section at the bottom titled, "SPECIFICATIONS & OPERATIONS".

    WHAT IT IS: A BASIC COMPREHENSIVE IDENTIFICATION GUIDE

    There are a lot of guns in this neatly organized reference, but it provides minimal info per gun. Essentially, one can quickly and reliably identify most any piece that may be encountered in the world today or during most of the twentieth century. Having said that, if you are looking for ballistic information you will have to look elsewhere.

    SO WAS IT THE BOOK OR MY DEODORANT?

    Having moved away from the foot traffic to sit in the shade, after becoming a little self-conscious of the unwanted attention I seemed to be getting, a woman, about 30 or so, who had been waiting in line to get a tattoo-like rub-on, was staring at me and moving toward me. "You must be a gun dealer?" She stated rather proudly. I replied, "No -- actually I am an anti-gun activist." She looked me over, now, as if expecting to see what was wrong with me that she had missed the first time and walked away without speaking again.


  4. Very imformative and up to date, with relevant facts and a summary for each weapon. On the negative side though, there are WAY to many grammatical errors, it was as if the author could'nt speak English. But since grammar is not important in this type of book it is negligible. In terms of selection of firearms virtually every mass-produced firearm after 1940 is included; the only I can recall thats not in the book is the Walther P99.


  5. This addition of Jane's Guns Recognition guide deserves both praise and criticism. It covers a magnificent spectum of weapons from all over the world, but stops short of including new weapons, has inaccurate details (the caliber of several weapons is completely wrong).

    If you have a working knowledge of firearms already, don't waste your time. If you are just getting started, it might be worth you while.

1 comments about Miller's: Affordable Antiques: Price Guide 2003.

  1. There is no doubt that Miller's publications has produced some of the best books covering the study of antiques and they've done it again. The book contains clear color photos plus tips on buying genuine antiques at bargain prices. The "Miller's compares" feature is very informative as are the numerous "additional information" boxes;also provided are actual realized prices for each item. This book does for general antiques what Albert Sack did for antique furniture in his book Fine Points of Furniture and that is to teach the reader to train their "eye". A great book for the beginning or experienced collector.
