This is an excellent book for the collector. It contains all of the known fakes and fantasy coins, meaning coins that were minted, but not circulated,. The detailed information in the 3 volumes is great for the beginner.

A nice addition to a collectors library on KTK pottery...
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2000-04-01
This book is an excellent adjunct to the more commonly seenMary Frank Gaston's Encyclopedia. Kearn's book contains over 150photos of Knowles, Taylor, Knowles pottery, with a strong focus on the famous Lotus Ware (sometimes referred to as American Belleek), and Meredith and other jugs.

Kearns went straight to the source, the Ohio Ceramics Museum in East Liverpool, Ohio, for information about this pottery's wares. He gives us a history of the company and the different types of pottery it created when it ran, and tonnes of photos of the various pieces still available to the collector today. His prices do not reflect the impact that online auctions have had on the collectables market, but that is a common problem with reference works today, and should not deter you from buying this book.

The book *is* available!
It differs completely from all the other porcelain books. And what is best: you can get any information quickly owing to the alphabetical listings. It would be wonderful to have such a reference book for each of the traditional European porcelain manufactories.

Books such as these have fine photographs for English Porcelain collectors to see. In this case, the text, by expert Simon Spero is equally fine and illuminating. Ed Schwartz

Gillian Wilson is the curator of decorative arts at the Getty Museum and draws upon her considerable expertise to provide an informative, authoritative commentary on each of thirty-two objects, ranging from 1665 to 1785, selected from the Getty Museum collection, and showcased in this beautiful survey including the marks, provenance, exhibitions, and publications of each piece. Superb color and b/w photography wonderfully illustrates each piece. Mounted Oriental Porcelain In The J. Paul Getty Museum is an attractive, engaging, and beautifully produced volume that would grace any personal, academic, or community library artbook collection.

For anyone interested in this facinating subject...this book is the "bible!" Thank you Betty Monkman for updating this history and for letting "fans of the White House" like me - be able to learn so much! I truly dream of someday having dinner off some of this china!

A Triumph of Collectible Research!
Helpful Votes: 3 out of 3 total.
Review Date: 2004-05-30
This author has extensively researched a previously little-known subject. This book is so complete that I think auction houses will use it as a reference. The photographs are stunning and the line drawings extremely detailed. Prices are listed for each item, which is most helpful. What is invaluable is the effort the author has made to trace the manufacturers of as many shoes as possible. What a bonus for shoe collectors!
