Ladies Vintage Accessories

Beautiful even as a coffee table book, Complete book on vintage accessories for women, history and ID helpful.

Great beginner book for new collectors.

Gave this book to my fiancee' as a gift. She and her mother love it. It helps them with their vintage show. I would highly recommend it.

This book is the generous sharing of Ms.Johnson's passion of 25 years - the collecting of vintage clothing and accessories. With overviews of all of a woman's favorite accessories, the book can easily serve as a basic primer for those with a new-found interest in vintage pieces. The information on documentation, age determination, and worth accessment is both helpful and inspirational. The numerous close-up photos of a wide variety of accessories, along with drawings, illustrations, and ads from old periodicals will delight both new and experienced collectors, as well as those simply interested in the past - for fashion, as always, tells us much about culture. Ladies' Vintage Accessories is written in a personable style and is full of both information and food for thought. Highly Recommended.

LaRee Johnson-Burton's book, Ladies Vintage Accessories, is outstanding. The photographs were stunning, and the information imparted about the value and description of the collection was exceedingly valuable. Quite frankly, I feel this book is a must-have, not only for the serious collector of vintage accessories and garments, but for writers of historical fiction, who can use this guide to bring them back in time and make certain that their characters are properly adorned. From cobalt blue Victorian parasols to 1920 gold mesh bags, this is a valuable and beautiful crafted book, packaged impeccably by Collector Books, and written by an author/collector who is clearly knowledgeable and passionate about her field. --Karen Plunkett-Powell, author, Remembering Woolworth's

I found this book to be most informative. It contains a vast array of information and subject matter....whether you collect vintage purses, fans, hats, gloves, parasols, shoes, capes, hankies, aprons, there is something for everyone! The illustrations and photos are beautiful and this book was quite obviously a labor of love by the author! FIVE STARS!!!
