Tomart's Encyclopedia of Action Figures by Sally Ann Berk, Tom Tumbusch (2001, Hardcover, Illustrated)

It is a great book on starting a collection.It also has some good information about storage of your loose collection.I am a collector of action figures.I prefer them to be loose because packages take up a lot of space.My wife is not having it.I wish there was more varieties if action figures.The book is a little outdated but still has some great information for any toy collector.You will learn something from the beginner to the expert.Great pictures in it.Needed a little more about each collection of action figures.I brought it because it was at a flea market collectors book store.It was cheap too.I got it for almost nothing but it was worth the purchase.Great starter book for anyone getting to know about action figures.
