1980 Advertising Dolls rare book. By Joleen Robinson and Kay Sellers, 1980, 320 pages, very good condition. This book is considered The Bible for all advertising dolls up to 1980 and is no longer available. The book is outdated but the information and pictures are invaluable. L111x7. (s6)  1974 Treasures Of America – Great Book For Collector’s Of Antiques – 624 Pages – Possibly First Edition – Very Good Condition. Non-Fiction/Collector.

Covers American Encasutic Tiling Company, Herman Mueller, Leon Solon, Mosaic Tile Company, Weller tiles, and souvenir items. A truly hard to find reference book. Excellent condition - near mint.  American Art Pottery by Dick Sigafoose - Another relatively new, terrific, hard back book on the market. At least half of the items are tile, contrary to the title of the book. Very different than "American Art Tile", as the author had different collecting interests.
