Summary: Really good on the details!
Comment: I have found this to be of immediate value in figuring out who made what. No, it doesn't have all the answers, but covers most things pretty well, and certainly better than any other reference I have. A must for any serious collector or dealer of American silver.
Rating: 5
Summary: A wonderful reference for collectors or dealers...
Comment: This reference would be a wonderful addition to any silver collector's library. It contains over 2400 marks, along with information about over 1600 manufacturers of American silver. Unlike some other books (Kovel's wonderful guide comes to mind), it goes into a bit more depth, with histories of and information about the makers themselves, rather than just the marks. There are lots of black and white photos, showing some of the marks themselves as well as samples of the works on which they appear. All in all an excellent reference for either the collector or the dealer of American silver, and worth the wait to order.

Summary: Much additional information.
Comment: In comparing to previous edition: lots more text & many more entries!!! Format changed to 2 columns - a little harder to find things w/out white space. Some hallmarks repeated from the last book have lost their clarity. Weight convertion chart is added, so is cross-referencing company names. But there is no 'flow chart' of companies as in the last edition. Seems to be no additions to the glossary. A must buy even if you own the previous edition!
