Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. Witty polka-dotted chickens. Purple pickup trucks sculpted out of mud. A Navajo grandma riding an orange cardboard giraffe. For more than two decades, Chuck and Jan Rosenak have collected unique pieces of Navajo folk art, many of which were later acquired by the Smithsonian and have appeared in museums across the country. Their collection, research, and writing have helped to define and illustrate an art form that ranges from wooden carvings of roadrunners in tennis shoes to vibrant pictures painted on old bed sheets. Featuring more than 50 artists and 120 color photos of artwork, this new edition of the Rosenaks' groundbreaking Navajo Folk Art is the essential guide to a comic, intensely creative, truly American art.
