This book has great photos and provides a reasonable basis for pricing fountain pens for sell. It does not give much information on establishing condition and value based on condition, only a range. It dose give a fairly complete listing of fp's from America. A great collector's reference but not a definitive reference for any specific make or model. Worth the price.
Great source book on all you want to know about fountain pens.
