Colored Glassware of Depression Era

Hardbound This is the stated FIRST PRINTING of the original classic volume written on the subject -- COLORED GLASSWARE OF THE DEPRESSION ERA. Written by Hazel Marie Weatherman, the 240-page hardbound book features page after page of both color and black/white photos, along with listings of the trademarks of the glass companies. It was copyrighted in 1970 by the author. The interior of this copy is in very good condition. The covers show wear on edges, corners and spine ends, with a previous owner’s name rubber stamped on the inside front. The front hinge is broken, but all pages are still tightly bound. It’s a rare find – and a great addition to any depression glass lover’s library! (6272)

GREAT HARD-TO-FIND-WARRENS MOVIE POSTER Reference Book

HARDBACK WARREN'S MOVIE POSTER PRICE GUIDE REFERENCE BOOK THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE PRICE GUIDE EVER! OVER 18,000 TITLES FROM 1900 TO 1992!INCLUDING MAJOR AUCTION RESULTS DATABASE. 1993 EDITION.ISBN 0-9634319-0-0AUTHOR: JON R. WARRENPUBLISHED BY: American Collectors ExchangeA Division of Warren Ventures Corp.2401 Broad StreetChattanooga, TN 37408BINDING TYPE: HARD COVERCOPYRIGHT DATE: 1993 REVISED EDITIONNUMBER OF PAGES: 466BOOK SIZE: 8-3/4 X 11-1/4, 1-1/2 THICK.INTRODUCTION: (EXCERPT) ~ Movie posters were never meant to be collected; nor were they ever intended to be sold to the public. They were not mass-produced, and were never meant to be mass-merchandised. Posters were produced for one reason: to advertise upcoming films at the locl theater. They were intended to be used over and over again, shipped from one theater to the next, until they fell apart from over-use. They were printed in very limited quantities (probably under 10,000 one sheets during the thirties) because until recently there were not a large number of theaters around the United States (it is estimated that during the Depression there may have been as few as 3,000 theaters nationwide.) But they were produced with such dazzling beauty that it was inevitable people would take them home and hang them on their walls. Thus began the hobby of collecting movie posters.BOOK SUBJECT ~ Here are book excerpts regarding this second edition.The first edition appeared in early 1985. The hobby of collecting movie posters has matured a great deal. Movie posters have recently been referred to as *Hollywood posters*, *film posters*, *cinema advertising paper*, and other terms intended to make movie posters seem more akin to the fine art field. (We prefer to call them, quite humbly, what they have always been called - movie posters.) Prices that were never dreamed of when the first edition came out have been achieved and even surpassed. Nowadays, $30,000 is a price that won't buy some of the rarest posters. The current market is so strong that the supply of rare classic posters has all but dried up. The lack of reliable pricing information in the marketplace has contributed to the great reluctance by old-time collectors to sell anything of top quality or rarity. Most everyone loves the motion pictures so this will be great to read through. The posters capture a day of long ago and magic. For the avid collectors this definately is a MUST-HAVE REFERENCE BOOK that gives you a guide to your collection.The center of the book has a nice collection of VIBRANT ILLUSTRATED POSTERS. The rest of the book has them shown in black and white, or just the descriptive information on the poster. All in alphabetical arrangement. Note the TABLE OF CONTENTS, pictured for you, and the important **Ten Poster Tips* by Matthew Schapiro.1. NEVER TRIM ANY POSTER2. EXPECT DAMAGE DURING SHIPMENT3. OPEN POSTERS AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE4.
