Summary: Recommend readers go to the experts vs this book.
Review: This is the book I refer to first when I get a new piece of porcelain. 90% of the time I find the mark in this book. U.S. Marks are not as well represented, however I do get some good information about the marks I do find.I like the way the book is organized. You can look in the index if you know a name. This leads you to locations in the book where this name is listed. Or you can search by the shape, design, or letters used in the mark. I am a beginner and I still found this book to be very helpful in my research. My only request for an updated version is to include more U.S. Marks. The U.S. Pottery and Porcelain markets are getting very hot and it would be helpful to be able to quickly identify them.
Rating: 
Summary: Great book for serious collectors
Review: Whether you collect McCoy, Hull, or Royal Doulton, you will find information about the marks on your pottery and porcelain here. Well designed, well written, loaded with examples, and even some histories of manufacturers. Great all around reference.
