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. The Fairbairn-Sykes Fighting Knife stands symbolic for daring secret operations that Britain ran during World War II. This book provides an insight in the development of 20th century's most influential military fighting knife and its historical background. Also the biographical background of its inventors, William Ewart Fairbairn and Eric Anthony Sykes, is embedded in this story and unburdened of all the myths and legends that have been woven around these two innovative men. It covers not only the basic variations of the F-S knife but also numerous other examples the collector may encounter. The problematic topic of fakes is discussed as well as the question as to how to narrow the focus of one,s collection. Thus, prospective buyers of Fairbairn-Sykes knives will find this book a useful guide through the jungle of variants and fakes.

The author provides a broad overview of the early marketing industry, the development of regional identities, and major tradenames and trademarks used by German companies during the period. The first half of this in-depth study lists and defines hundreds of terms, names, and misnomers of the various Imperial and National Socialist-era manufacturers. The second half of the work is made up of hundreds of logo and trademark illustrations as well as official and manufacturing markings commonly found on end products. over 1000 bw images  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. The significant merit and historical importance of vintage folk art fishing lures and tackle have remained largely "undiscovered" by the folk art community. This book will change that. Over 700 striking color photos and fascinating text presents vintage folk art fishing lures, predominantly from the first half of the 20th century, as small, exquisite, handcrafted treasures. Originally made only for catching fish, these lures were assembled from available materials and household supplies. Through their makers' vision and talent, miniature "sculptures" were created. Each lure is unique and personal. Detailed background, historical, and introductory sections complement photos conveying the limitless range of lure designs from primitives to elaborate folk art classics. Early folk artists including Bud Stewart, William Giles, and Burt Errett as well as contemporary artists Bob Baird, Aage Bjerring, Bill Grossman, C.B. Lewis, and C.E. Wilson are featured. First-ever detailed benchmarks to assess an individual folk art lure's quality, condition, authenticity, and value. This book is a treasure for fishermen and folk art collectors, displaying lures from both known and anonymous makers. 718 color photos  Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas.

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. Collector Bookstore Quick Notes: Serbia's purchase of the Model 1871 rifle, which became the Serbian Model 1880, helped save Mauser from bankruptcy. This book is the first in English to provide a complete discussion every Yugoslav Mauser rifle from 1880 to the present, including sniper, hunting and target rifles and .22 sporting rifles. Publishers Full Description: Few realize it but an obscure little Balkan country which had recently gained its independence from the Ottoman Empire, played a profound role in the development of the Mauser rifle. Serbia's purchase of the Model 1871 rifle came just in time to save the Mauser company from bankruptcy. It became the Serbian Model 1880. Among other innovations for which Serbian designers were responsible was the famous "ring-of-steel" which provided complete support for the cartridge base, and which was introduced into the Gew.M1898 rifle in 1905. Serbia, later renamed Yugoslavia, also helped develop the "intermediate-ring" Mauser action. Yugoslav Mausers - Models 1924-52C (C with an breve --"v" diacritical mark), Model 24/47 and Model 1948 - are prized collectors items. Mr. Bogdanovic's book is the first in English to provide a complete discussion of these, and every other "Yugoslav" Mauser rifles from 1880 to the present, including all sniper rifles, hunting and target rifles and .22 sporting rifles. In Serbian and Yugoslav Mauser Rifles, each model is discussed in its own chapter. All serial numbers are presented by year. All markings are presented and translated and all finishes and changes to all models are described in text and charts and well illustrated with both photographs and excellent drawings for clarity. These are the rifles that proved so deadly to the Nazi occupiers in World War II in the hands of the famous Yugoslav "partisans." Branko Bogdanovic is a well-known European gunwriter and has written several books on firearms as well as dozens of magazine articles. He is also a writer and researcher for the Zastava Arms Factory in Kragujevac, Serbia; a member of the Advisory Board of the National Military Museum, Belgrade, Serbia; and a researcher for the Ministry of the Interior.  Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas.

Collector Bookstore Quick Notes: This photo book displays hundreds of examples of original drag racing collectible memorabilia from the 1950s though current times. Publishers Full Description: The late 1940s and early 1950s were a great time for car clubs and various timing associations throughout the United States. The earliest keepsakes by hot rodders were member pins, car club plaques, t-shirts, jackets, decals, photographs and the rare event poster and program. The fanatics' demand for more collectible items grew as quickly as the sport of drag racing, clinging to countless amounts of memorabilia branded by their favorite driver, car or race event. This photo book displays hundreds of examples of original drag racing collectible memorabilia from the 1950s though current times. From a single keepsake to the super collections that include tens of thousands of items--everything from die cast cars, T-shirts and jackets, damaged and crashed car parts, trading cards, posters, toys, pins and badges, decals and stickers, fire suits and helmets, team hand out cards, events programs, and so much more.  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. Signed by the authorA first-class book about antique folding fruit knives -- the first comprehensive volume on the subject.BOOK REVIEWReviewed by Knife World StaffPocket fruit knives are folding knives which contain a cutting blade intended specifically for fruit. Because the acid in fruit juices will rapidly discolor a carbon steel blade, cutlers offered these knives with blades of silver, gold, or silver plate (rarely other materials), which better resist corrosion. With an elegant fruit knife in your pocket, you were prepared for whatever fruit-dining opportunity might present itself.Perhaps no area of knife collecting has been so unfairly neglected as these fruit knives. In design, quality and ornamentation many represent the pinnacle of the cutler's art, and yet it seems that relatively little attention has been paid to them. Inexplicably, collector values have languished well below those fetched by steel-bladed knives of comparable quality, but perhaps that's all about to change.This new book entitled Pocket Fruit Knives is the work of Simon Moore, the leading expert in the field and since 1975, the author of many articles on fruit knives and early European cutlery for The National Knife Magazine, Silver Magazine, and others (he's also penned three booklets for Shires Album series). This book shares its format, retail price, and high standard with The London Knife Book reviewed last month - no coincidence as both are published by David Watson of Antique Knives Ltd.The book is divided into chapters covering: A Brief History of Pocket and Fruit Knives in Europe up to 1650; Early French Pocket Fruit Knives; Pocket Fruit Knives From Other Countries (primarily the U.S.); as well as four lengthy chapters on the evolution, peak, and decline of English Pocket Fruit Knives from the 1700s to 1940.The coverage of French and English fruit knives of all eras is truly outstanding, and far surpasses all previous publications on the subject. While French specimens are rarer here in the U.S. than in Europe, English-made fruit knives are easily the most often encountered and the most popularly collected, making this book an important resource. Coverage of American fruit knives as well as those made in other countries is more basic, but I still cant point to any other source that does a better job.The text is clearly written and well organized, and are accompanied by well over 600 illustrations. Like most other books on collectibles, the photographs are a HUGE drawing card - not just because they're clear and of decent size, but because they show so many fine knives. The hundreds of fruit knives pictured here range from common examples that collectors encounter with frequency, to a wide variety of extremely rare specimens - including some of the finest known.I thought that I would list a few of the more exotic examples pictured, to give one a taste of how complete this book is. Of course there are countless fruit knives with silver blades and mother of pearl (nacre) or tortoiseshell handles, but the number with gold blades is amazing, and handle materials extend to agate, enamel, ivory and fancy celluloid. Some are elaborately inlaid with silver or gold wire (piqué work), bits of contrasting shell, and even diamonds and split pearls. There are unusual mechanisms like slotted, slide-out, and butterfly fruit knives, and one even has a mechanism to close the slot between the scales when the blade is open (wow!) You'll find pocketknives containing silver fruit blades, and fruit knives with fork, nut pick, and orange peeler blades. One fruit knife shown has a kukri-shaped silver blade! But some of my favorite photos are those that aren't pretty. There are quite a few shots of early fruit knives that have been disassembled to show hallmarks concealed on a blade's tang. And fourteen superbly illustrated pages are devoted to fruit knife construction, common faults, repair, and fakery and how to spot each. The author even provides guidelines as to how much such faults will affect the collector value of a given piece.Speaking of values, Moore has thoughtfully provided us with a separate insert suggesting approximate collector values for each knife illustrated. Though the value ranges are somewhat wide and are listed in British Pounds (1 GBP = approximately US $1.60 as of this writing) this is a great idea. Values seem a bit on the high side for the U.S. market - but that may change with the publication of this book.Four important pages are devoted to identification of makers hallmarks, something that collectors should really appreciate. There is also a glossary, a bibliography, and a very detailed index which I anticipate using often. Pocket Fruit Knives is without question the finest resource ever compiled for fruit knife enthusiasts - coupled with a basic guide to hallmarks, most collectors may not need another book on the subject. Collectors of antique English and French folding knives in general will also find much to like here, and it will appeal to the maker of Art Knives as a source of inspiration in the same way that The Antique Bowie Knife Book has. But don't be surprised if it leads you to collect these vintage gems!ContentsA Brief History of Pocket and Fruit Knives in Europe up to 1650Early French Pocket Fruit KnivesEvolution of English Pocket Fruit Knives to c.1770: The Period of ConfusionThe Pistol-grip Period: 1770-1790The Golden Age: 1790-1815Later Regency to pre-Victorian.

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. Signed by the authorWritten by the respected knife historian, collector and author, Ron Flook, this new publication is an informational and reference tool on antique London knives, knife makers and cutlery dealers. With high quality color photography and concise, detailed content, The London Knife Book is expected to change the face of London knife trading and collecting by providing collectors with a great deal of previously unpublished information. BOOK REVIEWReviewed by Knife World Staff Author Ron Flook's name should be familiar to most Knife World readers - if not for his occasional contributions to this publication, for his books on military knives (which include British & Commonwealth Military Knives - the definitive work on the subject.) But you may not be aware that the author's love for English cutlery extends far beyond military edged weapons, to include the fixed blade and folding knives that earned Great Britain its reputation as the world's cutlery center. While the city of Sheffield has for centuries attracted most of the attention, the cutlers of London achieved an equally high standard - and yet the city has largely been overlooked by cutlery historians. In digesting Mr. Flook's latest book, one is struck by the notion that it should do much to help correct this oversight and give London's cutlers the recognition that has been withheld for so long. Perhaps the best way to describe The London Knife Book is to suggest that its format resembles the highly regarded Goins' Encyclopedia of Cutlery Markings, but with crisp, clear, full color photographs (the work of publisher David Watson) and of course focused specifically on the cutlery makers and retailers of London. The bulk of the book (215 pp.) is devoted to an A-Z Listing of London Cutlers which is a compilation of known makers & retailers, their addresses and dates of operation, and a short history of each firm if that information is known. There are literally hundreds of entries, covering the better known firms like Evans & Co., Holtzapffel, Paget, Thornhill, Underwood, Weiss, and Wilkinson to those such as Clements, Cogswell & Harrison, J. Drew & Sons, Hill & Son, Lund, and Savigny, and of course a great many of the obscure variety. Few of these firms have been well documented in the cutlery literature, and I would venture that the majority of makers and retailers are listed here for the very first time. This is a tribute to the amount of original research conducted in the course of assembling this book, and is The London Knife Book's most significant contribution to the field. Accompanying the listings are many rare knives and other fine cutlery items with a London association. Hunting knives, bowies, and folding knives of all kinds (especially multiblade examples) are very well represented, and there are also a few surgical instruments, straight razors, folding saws, hunters axes and other items scattered throughout - enough to remind us that London's cutlers produced more than just the obvious. The large closeup photos of particularly significant pieces are a nice touch, and collectors of unusual cutlery will find many things to appreciate here - from pocketknives with unusual special-purpose blades or opening mechanisms, to a 19th century throwing star that will look familiar to Randall collectors, to English hunting knives that bear a strong resemblance to those popular in California's Gold Rush days. The London Knife Book is an important addition to the cutlery literature, and an absolutely essential reference for everyone with an interest in English cutlery of the 19th and 20th centuries - after all, it's the only book likely to identify the more obscure London cutlery firms. Those who simply appreciate bowie knives and high grade pocket cutlery will also find much to appreciate here as well. Hats off to Mr. Flook for delivering another superb book on a subject that was in real need of one.

We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. Goins' Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition is probably the most talked about, eagerly awaited book in recent memory. Since the first Encyclopedia became required reading for all cutlery collectors 12 years ago, John and Charlotte Goins have been deluged with ever more questions, queries, and bits of information on old firms and markings. Increasingly, collectors have wondered if and when there might be an update to that knife collector's "bible." Friends, the answer is yes, and that day is finally here. For those of you unfamiliar with the "Goins Book," Goins' Encyclopedia contains summaries of the known history behind practically every marking found on antique cutlery. There are literally thousands of cutlery manufacturers, importers, dealers, hardware firms, barber supply companies, and the like included in its scope. When it comes to historial information on the brands of old knives, razors, or anything else that goes 'cut,' Goins' Encyclopedia is far and away the best single resource.  Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas.

Collector Bookstore Notes: Circa the American western frontier, this reference covers the Freund Brothers who specialized in making, modifying and engraving firearms. Notably, the firm also "improved" Sharps rifles, which were prone to dirt & residue problems in the dusty west. Publishers Description: Immigrants from Germany, the Freund brothers plied their trade across the Great American West in the final decades of the nineteenth century, following the railroad tracks ever westward. Along the way they set up shop in such hell-roaring end-of-track camps as Julesburg, Bear River City, and Corinne, before establishing permanent stores in Denver and Cheyenne. This is the story of the brothers' old-world gunsmithing and engraving, their modifications to Sharps and other game rifles using the patented "Freund's Improved" action, the famed Freund "More Light" sights, and their numerous patents for improvements to firearms and hard-rock mining tools. It is the story of American Manifest Destiny-- and of the Pioneer Gunmakers to the West. Dozens of Freund-made and -modified rifles are shown, many in color.
