Forget about it........2007-04-07
I really expected more. I was disappointed that the pictures were in black and white, items were really old or fairly new looking. The subject is so deep, I feel the author just skimed the surface.
Is that it?.......2000-04-15
As a collector of religious items, I was eager to find a book dealing with them. Then I opened this book. It was useless. It appeared to be nothing more than a personal collection display in drab black and white photos with no worthwile information on condition, value, and so on. Religious collecting is often overlooked and needs a good price guide...this one just isn't it!
This collector's book is a $20 drink coaster........1999-10-26
I've collected rosary beads for years; it is the most commonly asked-for religious collectible in antique stores, as well as holy water fonts & bottles, religious medals/jewelry & church interior items--none of which are properly addressed in this travesty of a collector's book.
About Time!!.......1999-09-05
Its about time we religious art collectors get a book on collectibles. I was disappointed it was in black and white, but it was GREAT to finally see such a book exist.
Very disappointing!.......1999-07-07
This book contains NO useful information, offers only grainy black & white photos. The information with each photo is nothing more than a description of the color of each item, very little info on the ages of the pieces. Nothing that would help you identify, date or value a piece.
