Fostoria Value Guide
Long, Milbra & Seate, Emily
Collector Books, 2003. 206 pages. ISBN: 1574323210.
Retail: $19.95
This new book updates values for Fostoria glassware covered in all four previous "Crystal for America" books by Long & Seate. It also provides new information on tumblers, which was not in the other books. It has a soft cover and is designed to be easily portable to glass shows, sales, etc. The cover by Beth Summers and the book design by Holly Long make this book beautiful as well as informative. There are many pictures, lots in color, and drawings to help readers find patterns, etc. This book does not replace the other 4 books which contain much more detailed information about the glassware, patterns and decorations.
The book is terrific! It is a very valuable tool for buying and selling glassware. The organization is very logical. I've had no trouble finding any values that I needed. The pictures and layout really make the book easy to use, despite the large quantity of data presented. And the new info on tumblers fills a gap in the material covered in the first 4 books. I highly recommend this book to anyone who collects, sell or just appreciates beautiful Fostoria glassware!
