  • An excellent reference book that I turn to every week.
As a novice dealer of new and antique dinnerware, this book has been an invaluable resource for identification and valuation. You will not learn a lot about any one manufacturer in this book because it focuses on the most desirable PATTERNS, featuring clear photos and basic pricing information. I find myself leafing through it often, even when I'm not looking for a particular pattern. If you don't specialize in one manufacturer's wares, but buy and sell a lot of different patterns, you really shouldn't be without this handy reference book. I hope Mr. Rinker will team up with Replacements to produce Volume II - The Top 1000 Patterns, 501-1000. ... show more

  • Very helpful.
While this book is not exhaustive nor is it intended to be, it contains great information on the most popular patterns in a number of categories. I would say this is most helpful to serious collector of dinnerware or a person who sells vintage dinnerware.

  • Great Seller; Mediocre Book
The pictures are too small to really see patterns, and the descriptions are OK, not interesting. My fault for not investigating the book more. On the other hand, the supplier was outstanding. Everything was done quickly and safely.
