This book is packed with great pics and interesting info on silver. It was published in 2001. Thus the values today will be different. Great for comparison to today's prices. Hardcover.
If you are researching old family plastic jewelry or researching auction/yard sale items you are going to sell or keep this book has a lot of good pics and helpful info leading you to understand what you have.
I agree with the authors who say on the back of their book:
"...Although the parties are a thing of the past, Sarah Coventry jewelry has not been forgotten. Now, these durable and fashionable pieces are sought after by collectors who have redisovered their timeless appeal...."
Costume jewelry is such a fascinating area of jewelry to research. The different qualities of their pieces, the companies historys, their uniqueness in their designs, I began this costume jewelry research in the early 2000s when I listed items for a friend and ever since I am "hooked" on each beautiful piece I see and hold!
Sarah Coventry's pieces and company history are great and this book's pictures and info were and are good.
