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. Before fast food restaurants and take-out meals, there was home cooking. And you didn't learn to cook overnight, nor did you take lessons at a culinary school. You learned from watching Mom. And then you followed her lessons on your own little stove. And such little stoves that there were! Manufacturers of people-sized stoves competed side-by-side with toy makers in the production of these little wonders, many of them exact small-scale versions of actual stoves, with working grates, dampers, ash shakers and all the works. In today's consumer-protection society, it is incredulous to study these stoves with their working gas connections and alcohol burners that were actually designed to be used by a child! 150 antique toy stoves are presented in this book, each with detailed color photography, maker's marks and dates of production, and value guide. 96 pages. Over 200 color photographs.
