Summary: Good info with great pictures!
Comment: I have owned previous issues of "Colector's Guide to Antique Radios" and found them very helpful in giving me much needed values of old radios in which I wanted to sell. They have also helped inform me about certain specs. about items that I was interested in purchasing. I am a big fan of old tabletop tube radios and old transistor radios. As a smalltime collector, I very much like the color pictures of some of the radios included in the issues. This issue gave me more of the same much needed info, as well as fascinating photos!

Comment: Collector's Guide to Antique Radios: Identifcation and Values (Collector's Guide to Antique Radios)
This book is a valuable reference for me as I look for bargains in antique radios.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Pretty decent guide
Comment: I really enjoyed the book and have taken it along on radio hunting trips. It gives you a place to start but there are a surprising number of radios that are not in the book. Still, it has provided me a good basis for valuation and a real education of the universe of antique radios. Thanks.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Perfect for identifying the radios and their values.
Comment: Collectors who enjoy antique radios and specialty libraries catering to specialty collectors will have to have the updated 7th edition to Collector's Guide to Antique Radios by John Slusser: it packs in color photos of each antique to accompany the very latest values, organizes chapters by makers for quick and easy consultation, and includes plenty of reference material perfect for identifying the radios and their values.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good starting place for collectors
Comment: This guide gives a good overview of old radios. I agree with other readers that there are some iconic radios that should have been pictured.
However I can understand that the content had to be limited to make the book affordable. Myself, I would pay $60 for a larger book that had 4 times the content. Some short history on the manufacturers would have been nice too. On the positive side, this book has made me more aware of the variety of radios that were made. I can now better decide what I want to buy. The prices should only be used as relative value gauge.
