A Valuable Reference for Cased Glass Lamps
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is by far a favorite of mine personally. It covers in great detail the incredible cased glass lamps by the likes of Boston Sandwich and others. I found the price guide easy to use for what its worth. Clear sharp photos. A must for the appraiser. Silversmiths, jewelers, clock and watch makers of Kentucky, 1785-1900 Tennessee Silversmiths

Wonderful photographs of rare and not so rare old lamps along with a great education on their production. A real "must" for those collecting full sized kerosene lamps!

This is Ms. Thuro's companion book to Oil Lamps I. The focus here is on rare cased glass, colored glass and composite kerosene lamps and in combination with Oil Lmaps I, is a valued addition to a complete study of the kerosene lamp. 1998 Price Guide
Brilliant! Excellent Photographs and an Invaluable Reference
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Only one week after purchasing this book I spotted an Oil Lamp in an antique shop in Bournemouth, England and I bought it at a bargain price knowing from reading this book that it was a 1904 German "Bismark" Lamp!
