A must read book for any Jewel Tea Collector. A very easy AND informative book. The author is extremly knowledgeable about Jewel Tea. I highly recommend this book!
I bought this for a gift for my daughter for Christmas. I had already given her all of her great grandmothers collection of Jewel dishes and accessories that numbers in the hundreds of pieces. There are enough for 14, 7 piece settings, casseroles, bowls, tea pot, coffee pot and on and on. The book seems wonderful and as we all grew up with these dishes it is a great way for us to see how Granma had collected them all over the decades. We all remember Granma talking about the Jewel Tea Man delivering her groceries and dishes.
Being a collector of the Jewel Tea Autumn Leaf Collection I found this book to be most awesome. The history of the company as well as the great photographs were well documented. I highly recommend this high quality book to collectors!
This book made information available of items made in the 1940's and 50's. While searching antique shops the information enclosed help make wise purchases. The photographs and connected test are easy to follow. it is high quality and I would recommend this book to collectors. Jo Anne Pottle
Loved the book. Very helpful in cateloging my collection and finding new pieces to search for. Anyone who has Jewel Tea would benefit from owning this book.
I purchased this book as a Christmas present for my wife, who proudly displays a full set of "Autum Leaf" dishes in our china cabinet. My mother, who gave us the china, collected by her mother, saw the book and went throught every page Christmas morning. Need I say more.
I would highly recommend this book and its partner book "Jewel Tea: Sales and Houseware Collectibles" :to anyone who is interested in Jewel Tea and/or collecting it. This book is everything I had hoped for and more. It answers a lot of questions and has some very interesing facts.
I loved the book. My father sold Jewel Tea in the 1940's to late 50's or early 60's. I thought I have a pretty good collection but after reading the book I don't have a drop in a bucket so to speek. I had fun seeing what my stuff would go for.
