Review:
''Collecting Inexpensive Antiques by Plantagenet Somerset Fry is an engaging and practical guide for anyone interested in building an antique collection without breaking the bank. Fry, a well-known author of bestselling works on history and antiques, offers a lively and refreshing look at both traditional and off-beat areas of collecting. The book is filled with helpful hints on how to start a collection, where to look for bargains, how to handle dealers, and how to invest for the future. Fry dispels much of the myth and mystique surrounding antiques, making the world of collecting accessible to novices and would-be collectors. This Hamlyn all-colour paperback is beautifully illustrated, making it both informative and visually appealing. Whether you're interested in furniture, ceramics, silver, or more unusual items, this book provides the knowledge and confidence to begin your journey. A must-read for anyone fascinated by antiques and eager to start their own collection.''
