About this Page
It seems that everybody is selling something on the Internet and few sites
provide any free information about antiques and collectibles. Well, we
sell things too but we also provide some free information about the items
we sell and collect. This page is designed to provide a quick reference
for the experienced collector in identifying and dating some items.
It is not intended to be a definitive guide but only a quick reference
(This information should not be used as a buying or selling guide.).
The information provided is accurate to the best of our knowledge; however,
the user should consult the standard reference sources for confirmation
of this information -- we assume no liability for the information provided
herein. Indeed, the references we consult often conflict in identifying
and dating items.
If you want to support this work (and encourage further development
of online information about antiques and collectibles), buy
a screen saver. They're inexpensive, colorful, and even useful for
preventing monitor "burn-in." Use our online
purchase page (you can, of course, try out the shareware screen savers
for free before purchase) and then send an e-mail indicating that
you learned about the screen saver while using this online guide.
