Now in its twenty-sixth edition The Pictorial Price Guide to American Antiques showcases a selection of approximately 4,000 individual objects in full colour sold recently in the United States at auction.The objects included date from the seventeenth century to the mid-1950s, and range from the relatively common to the rare, from clocks and watches to toys and textiles.
The format provides an accurate market value of items sold at auction throughout a twelve month period. Prices realised have been based on actual sales records from a variety of the most highly respected auction houses in America. Entries are keyed to the auction gallery where an item was sold and the state abbreviation, to allow for regional price variations across the country.
