The Picture Book of Vaseline Glass (Schiffer Book for Collectors)

Rating:
Summary: Lots of Pretty Pictures
Review: This book has many lovely pictures. Some of the text identifying the pieces is very complete, but some of it is rather scanty. The pictures and the text describing the fascination of Vaseline Glass made me a believer. No guidance on how to tell reproductions and re-introductions from the genuine antique stuff, and no prices. But a good explanation of how to use a black light to tell Vaseline from other yellow glass. Don't buy this book for reference; buy it for inspiration.
