Paperback. Condition: Fair. What do Honus Wagner baseball cards, Queen Anne side chairs, and 19th-century ceramic lions have in common? At first glance, very little. Yet Evaluating Your Collection sets out to discuss this wide range of things that people collect, in order to guide them to a greater level of knowledge. Is an object really worth the price? How does one know what to look for? Can one recognize fakes and invisible repairs? What about color, finish, and form? In 1961, Charles F. Montgomery, Winterthur's first director, articulated a system for educating the eye and appraising the quality of an object. His fourteen points of connoisseurship, along with additions by Winterthur curators, conservators, and educators, form an unbeatable system. Understanding them, and how they interrelate, equips readers with a basic expertise necessary to operate in the world of antiques. Compact, reader-friendly, and illustrated in full color with objects largely from Winterthur's outstanding collection, this and future series volumes provide invaluable advice. Armed with tips from the experts, your trips to estate auctions, flea markets, or your grandmother's attic will never be the same.…

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. This 1978 exhibition catalog, compiled and introduced by noted curator and glass historian Dwight P. Lanmon, presents a richly documented survey of the Wadsworth Atheneum's holdings in historic glass, spanning nearly six centuries of production. The volume features 154 pages of catalog entries, scholarly notes, and extensive photographic plates, most in black-and-white, illustrating Islamic, European, and American examples. Each object entry includes provenance, period, attribution, materials, and comparative references, making the catalog a practical reference for scholars and collectors. The softcover volume remains structurally sound, with clean, unmarked interior pages and strong binding. The cover shows expected age toning and scattered foxing, particularly on the front and rear panels, but no tears or writing. The glossy photographic plates are bright and well-reproduced, and the catalog?s organization, including introduction, object descriptions, bibliography, remains an excellent snapshot of late-20th-century American museum scholarship on glass. This printing does not state edition or impression, consistent with the Atheneum's standard exhibition-catalog practice of the period. The colophon lists Copyright © 1978, Wadsworth Atheneum; Library of Congress Catalogue Card Number 78-62279. The unpriced cover is typical of institutional catalogs published for limited distribution. Dwight P. Lanmon is an influential curator, scholar, and museum director known for his extensive work in the study of American and European glass. Formerly director of the Corning Museum of Glass and later head of the Winterthur Museum, Lanmon has authored major reference works that remain foundational in the field. His involvement ensures this catalog's scholarly reliability and enduring usefulness.…
