Description:
Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. This book, reproducing photographs of the original catalog that served as a one-ofa-kind sales tool for the company's salesman, augmented with captions from a contemporary order book, provides today's collectors with an inexpensive way to identify and evaluate collectible Locke glass. Moreover, it is the only checklist of Locke Art Glass available. In addition to price lists, names and photographs identifying 190 glassware samples, the text also outlines briefly the life and accomplishments of Joseph Locke. In this special edition of the company's rare catalog, you'll find glorious glassware decorated in a rich variety of motifs: flowers, fruit, human figures, animals, birds, trees and shrubs, plus a number of classic and stylized designs. Page after page displays delicate pieces of stemware decorated with exquisitely etched roses, daffodils, violets, daisies, shamrocks, thistles and grape clusters. Steins exhibit such diverse subjects as a canoeist, a baseball catcher, a hunter and dog, a polo player, a horse and rider, a woman at a churn and an impressive Indian warrior. Collectors, scholars and students will find the Locke Art Glass Company catalog an invaluable addition to any reference library; lovers of fine glass will appreciate the enduring beauty of its subject matter.
