The Wonderful World of Cookie Jars: A Pictorial Reference and Price Guide

Rating:
Summary: Best Cross Reference
Review: Best Cross reference book out there..... We have been collectors for years and have all the books there are concerning Cookie Jars. And every edtion... Supnicks book is chalk full of pictures.... And the cross reference is wonderful....... I noticed when reading the other reviews some people don't have my same thoughts... I can't help but wonder if these are other authors who wish they had taken the time to do the cross ref. .. As far as the prices being higher in there book,,, I do notice that,, but I also notice that in other cookie jar books that are SO CALLED Revised prices,,,,,, Are not well researched.. Just putting out the same book and raising the prices of a few jars...
Supnicks Book is the beat one out there............... More photos then any other..
I felt I needed to write this as I notice some reviews were WRONG,, stating items not identified correctly... Well, anyone who is a Cookie Jar collector KNOWS some jars have questions as to who made them,, and everyone has their own thoughts.. Again leading me to believe there might be a few jealous authors out there.. GET THIS BOOK.. It will be your Bible...........

Review: I FOUND THIS COOKIE JAR BOOK TO BE THE BEST BOOK OUT THERE ON JARS. THE VALUES ARE A BIT HIGH BUT THEN AGAIN I AM WAITING FOR THEM TO UPDATE THE BOOK WITH TODAYS VALUES. WHEN THE BOOK WAS WRTTEN COOKIE JARS WERE AT A HIGH DOLLAR VALUE. THE CROSS REFERENCING AND THE PICTURES ARE EXCELLENT AND THE BOOK DESERVES A AAA+++ FROM ME!

Summary: Could be better, but still one of the best
Review: Pros: comprehensive, excellent cross-referenced organization (easy to find jar when you don't know maker), notes what mark should say on jar
Cons: values are too high, photography is good on some but on average it's not great -- too much contrast so difficult to see detail (looks like flash photography rather than lighted) and color is biased towards yellow, would be nice to have a measurements on all pieces

Summary: Good pictures and layout, but pricing too high.
Review: The Supnicks have a fine book available with a large selection of jars listed. I have several cookie jar books, and I would definitely recommend this above all others. However, values tend to indicate *high* book, and not necessarily what one can actually expect to bring in from the sale of their jar.
