Beautiful illustrations, advice, history, and values.
This is a great collector's book. It contains over 300 pages of beautiful compacts etc, gives their history, and 1999's values. It also contains great ads from magazines, catalogues, and newspapers which vividly bring you to a time when these compacts were such important parts of womens lives. It is so interesting to watch as beauty and fashion notions changed gradually into present day. Giants such as covergirl are featured here as well, with an ad from the 30's or 40's, I believe. Overall, the book was a journey that I truly enjoyed taking. It made the journey even better when I found out that two of my compacts are listed and worth around $175 each. Definitely a great book for both the collector and novice.
