Depression Glass, Aug 29 2010
By Shelley M. Abernathy "chemgeek05" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Collector's Encyclopedia of Depression Glass (Hardcover)
As always, Florence has good information on collectible glass. New to this book are pictures with numbers so we can tell which piece is which, a very helpful addition. The pictures are very good with attention to detail on the patterns. His section on reproductions is also a very helpful portion, as there are many people out there who don't know how often this glass has been reproduced. I am sad that it's his last book, as I've had several of his editions on glassware.

Another winner for Gene and Kathy, Mar 23 2010

Don't know how many past issues of Gene Florence's depression glass books I've got, but they are invaluable for the collector. I used to get the new edition every year, but now I just get one every 2 or 3 years. Depends on how far into your collections you are, or if you are selling. I've read books by other authors, but in my opinion, the Florence books are the most accurate and have the best photography.
