into the text (i.e. change "poodle" to "fox terrier" and you would have a new book). There was very little "breed specific" information, other than the Breed Standard, which was lifted from the AKC.

SCHROEDERS COLLECTIBLE TOYS: ANTIQUE TO MODERN PRICE GUIDE.......2001-11-29
THIS BOOK IS HIGHLY INFORMATIVE AND UP TO DATE WITH ITS DESCRIPTIONS AND PRICES. I USE THIS BOOK AS MY BIBLE FOR TOYS BECAUSE IT CONTAINS NOT ONLY THE EASY TO GET PRICES, BUT ALSO THE HARD TO FIND TOY PRICES. THE ONLY DRAW BACK THAT I CAN SEE IS I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE PICTURES. THIS IS A MUST FOR YOUR TOY COLLECTIBLE LIBRARY OF PRICE BOOKS.

A MUST For The Fleamarketsellers Club Members!.......2001-10-26

serious Flea Marketer, especially members of The Fleamarketsellers Community.
Sincerely,

Flea Market Trader (12th Edition).......2001-07-30
I found the information in this flea market guide to be very helpful in calculating the value of many every day items that you find at flea markets and garage sales. The broad content covering many items made it easy to look up items that I couldn't find in other similar price guide books.
I was very satisfied with the book and prefer it over some other well known antique and flea market price guide books that I have purchased before. It makes an excellent source to refer to when attempting to figure out the worth of an item that can't be found in some of the other guides.
The guide offer a variety of catagories and is certainly a book I would recommend for anyone researching flea market and related items. There is a wealth of good information in the book.

This book rates 10 stars, year after year.......2006-11-27
If you are going to buy only one price guide on antiques, buy this one...and buy a new one every year. I use this constantly ~ it is well written, well documented and has numerous references. It covers a daunting array of items thoroughly and interestingly. The background information at the beginning of each heading is worth the price of admission alone.
Difficult to Find Your Item.......2005-12-03
While the book is huge and covers a vast number of items, I have yet to find an item in it that I need to identify/value. It's a good resource for a general feel of how to price items/what items should cost. I tend to rely on more specialized/collector's books instead of this one. In fact, I don't believe that I have opened this book in a year.
Schroeders Antique Price Guide.......2005-09-17
Good book but a lot left out, Mostly rare or hard to find items are covered and from not all makers. Still a good book for the more advanced collector.
Excellent reference guide.......2005-07-28
We have used Schroeder's Antique Price guide for many years. We always look forward to the newest issue as we use it on a very frequent basis. It is written in concise and clear terms, well documented with many reference sites also listed in clear, easy directories. Amazon offered this guide at the best value we could locate online or offline. Thank you Amazon.
Thank you,

Old Books That Are Not Too Old.......2005-03-04
This guide is for the in-between books. It is for books that are not so old that they would be very hard to find. It contains 25,000 listings of old books with current values. It also lists a directory of over 200 dealers and collectors who are willing to buy the types of old books listed in the guide.
Here are a few examples:
John F Kennedy, Profiles In Courage, 1956 1st ed. F/NF $150.00
Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, 1962 1st ed. F/NF $150.00
Woody Guthrie, Bound For Glory, 1943 1st ed. G/dj $65.00
How Old is Old?.......2002-05-24
When I purchased Huxford's Old Book Value Guide, I imagined that the books that were covered might be older than those written by Len Deighton and Marian Zimmer Bradley. There's lots of stuff from 1970 on, but coverage of genuinely old books is very sparse. The title of this guide is extremely misleading, but if late 20th Century books are your area of interest, you might find this useful. I didn't.
Hit or miss..........2002-02-14
This book does list values of 25,000 books as it claims, but it is incomplete in some very frustrating ways that have to do with how it was put together. The authors apparently contacted a number of book dealers and collected their 'inventories' into a database. These were then consolidated into the listing(s) of this book.
But what that means is that you find an extremely unsystematic selection of titles. You may find a $500 title that someone has been trying to sell for years right above a run-of-the-mill used-bookstore title selling for $15. You could find an author's second book listed, but not the first or third. As a lookup/reference tool is is hardly useful.
I once thought this book would be a nice supplement to the other collecting books that focus on more high-end titles... something to take along to yard sales and the like to see if the $0.25 book was 'worth' $50 or $0.50. Well, even with 25,000 titles you can imagine that many more books are not listed here. Far too often I would not find a listing but COULD NOT KNOW if the book was valuable or not... its non-existence in this book just means one of the selected sellers did not have it in stock. I also kept finding entries in the $25/$30 range - right at the point where it might be a collectable underlisted by that one store or just their overpriced junk. With only a single such listing to consider, I just couldn't know.
The overlarge physical size of the book also seemed unwieldy to me. Combined with the sense of slap-together technique and a look at the number of other "Huxfords" listings, I frankly feel that it is just an attempt to grab a piece of the growing 'collectibles' market.
If this is your taste............2001-10-24
I am sure this book is excellent for antiquarian/rare book lovers, but I like popular authors with books 20-30 years old too, and those seem to be lacking in this guide a bit. Unless you are a professional book dealer, you will not fetch these prices on the internet, it is flooded with booksellers and the worth of a fine book seems to be waning. But all-in-all it is a good guide to go by when looking up older hardbacks.
Boof Refference or Book Prefference?.......2001-09-26
If you know your books fairly well to begin with, then this book will be at times, helpful. If you are looking for a way to bone up on collectibles, you may just be discouraged. A lot of very noteworthy books are left out, which leaves the reader to wonder if a little favoritism may be going on with the Author. Overall, I still had to rate a solid 4 for good effort in organizing a generally helpful refference guide to the new and seasoned book hound. For the money, it's a go.

The Old Farmer's Almanac 2006 Gardening Calendar
ASIN: 0761137173 |
Book Description
The allure of the private world, the mystery of what's hidden, and the pleasure of being allowed to peek. Every month, find a place of respite and rejuvenation. Open the gate, find a break in the hedge. Follow the birds. Sunlight, layers of greenery, water, a found object here and there--composed by a gardener's vision, it is a place apart from the world. For 2006, Smith and Hawken's SECRET GARDEN CALENDAR features twelve sanctuaries that engulf all who enter--even if just in a daydream--in peace and serenity. A rocky stream flanked by colourful wildflowers. A bench beneath a glorious blooming crabapple--an invitation to sit, meditate, and contemplate. Accompanying the photographs are sidebars with quotes and appreciations.

A lush retreat.......2006-02-25
Each photograph on this gorgeous calendar provides a beautiful garden scene. Keep it in your office!
Beautiful Calendar.......2006-02-23
After searching at several stores after Christmas and not finding anything I wanted to hang on my wall for a year, I bought this Secret Garden calendar at Amazon. It was a little risky not being able to look over the months physically, but I am very pleased with it. It has beautiful photos and artwork. Little garden tidbits and plenty of space to write all my to dos.
Gorgeous calendar!.......2000-11-24
Beautiful garden photos you'll want to escape into. There are also short excepts from poems along the side. Simple and pretty.
Great photos but not practical.......2000-06-21
This calendar has really beautiful and peaceful pictures, and I like the theme of secret gardens - but it's missing two vital elements: the little previews of previous month/next month, and the phases of the moon. If those don't matter to you, then get it, but for me this is a defective calendar.
SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!.......1999-12-29
This calendar is not only for those who are lovers of gardens, but also for those who are lovers of beauty and aesthetically pleasing places. This calendar provokes a feeling of serenity and tranquility, bringing you into the surroundings each picture displays. For those who have a garden, or for those who dream of one day having one, this calendar is an A+ in every way!
