Description: Up for sale is Kovels’ New Dictionary of Marks by Ralph and Terry Kovel. This book covers pottery and Porcelain 1850 to the present. You may be the owner of a valuable piece of porcelain or pottery, but the cryptic symbol on the underside of the piece may be your only clue to its value. This book will help you identify your pieces. This book provides the quickest, easiest way to identify more than 3,500 American, European, and Oriental marks. This is the most comprehensive reference for 19th and 20th century marks (the original, The Dictionary of Marks: Pottery and Porcelain, remains the definitive authority on 17th, 18th, and 19th century marks). This book is arranged according to symbol (anchor, birds, crown) and alphabetically according to name (delft, Sevres). The new easy-to-read format makes identification a breeze: If the symbol on the piece is a shield, turn to the “shield” section and leaf through until you’ve found your mark; if the mark is a name, simply check it in the alphabetical section. Each mark is illustrated and accompanied with all relevant information: factory, city and country of origin; material used; and name of current company (which may have changed since the piece was made). The book provides supplementary sections on dating systems used by important factories, the vocabulary of marks, fakes and forgeries, pottery and porcelain “family trees”, and a cross-referenced index. 290 pages. Hard cover with jacket. Copyright 1986. Mint condition. – Book 2,491
