Celluloid Collectibles: Identification & Value Guide

Rating:
Summary: A Useful Tool for the Beginning Collector
Review: Shirely Dunn's guide to celluloid provides a useful history of the "Celluloid Era" of 1888 - 1920, including manufacturer's marks. She also includes color photos of a wide range of celluloid items, from clocks and toys, to manicure sets and advertising ware. Without an index, it is not very useful as a value guide.

A good book for beginners, but not too terrific if you want to identify & value a specific piece.
