  • Excellent source book for compact collectors

    This wonderful source book written by a collector is chock-o-block full of pictures both in color and black and white as well as informative text for the compact collector. Many of the compacts found on ebay are pictured in the book. That is why I bought it. The book itself is hardbound and very well produced. How wonderful is it to see a compact you own that is also pictured in the book. I highly recommend it to anyone who is enjoying compact collecting.

  • Vintage & Vogue Ladies' Compacts Identification & Value

    Lovely pictures but no price guide.I need to know what the compacts are worth. I use this information to buy the compacts. I was very disappointed. If they could issue the prices that would be great and I would buy it.
