Buying antiques at auctions revealed in everyday language
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
John Marion has written a very readable account of how to buy affordable antiques at Sotheby's Auction House in New York. He takes you through the process of registering and bidding in a common sense way that takes the mystery out of the process. In addition, he makes a compelling argument that many of the objects you buy at a department store might better be purchased at a reputable auction house as investments which you can enjoy for years to come. The Best of Everything is a tresure in itself.
