This is an excellent book. The Mangus' have put together an exhaustive reference on this collectible pottery. They cover everything! From planters to figurines, from bookends to cookie jars, from the design lines to the kitchenware, it's all here.They include an extensive history of the pottery and its people (owners, designers, employees). They detail the various production methods used to produce the wide variety of wares. They include a wonderful section of photos of the various paper labels used by Shawnee (they used few, if any, backstamps or marks, other than the common "USA".)My only quibble with this book (and it's a teeny tiny one) is that the prices shown are high in today's market. However, that's not the Mangus' fault, as it reflects the impact that online auctions have had on collectibles in all areas and markets. The bottom line is, if you're looking for a reference on this fun pottery, this is the book to buy!
This is a very nice book for the Shawnee Pottery collector. Every collector should use every available resourse at there disposal prior to purchasing Shawnee Pottery because over 50% of the items listed as Shawnee on our favorite on line auction web site is a fake. The value guides are not much use in that they do change frequently, but the photos and descriptions are great. This is just one tool you can use prior to buying Shawnee Pottery.
I bet I have looked through this book 4 times within the first day I had it. It was fantastic to help me place which pieces I had with what categories. It was super easy to locate items I was referencing and although the pricing is a bit outdated, that can be expected since pieces are now more valuable then before.
Shawnee Pottery: An Identification & Value GuideTHIS BOOK IS EXCELLENT, IN PROPERLY INDENTIFYING SHAWNEE PIECES OF POTTERY, WITH EACH PATTERN CLEARLY DEFINED AND IN COLOR. GREAT BOOK
Great Book for Shawnee Collectors, especially those new to Shawnee. Good overall information on the company and marks, and a lot of excellent photos and identification information of individual Shawnee items.
Good pictures and descriptions and historical information, book was as new. Like most collector's guides, the values are somewhat inflated, but it is an excellent reference and well worth the price.
I COLLECT SHAWNEE POTTERY AND THIS BOOK IS VERY INFORMATIVE.IT LETS ME KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND THE VALUES OF THE POTTERY.
The book was accurate and gave a good representation of all the Shawnee pottery products over the year, helping me both identify and know the value of individual pieces.
