Even though this price guide is from 2004, the prices still reflect most current values on eBay. The pictures are great. The informational blurbs about each item are useful and reasonably thorough. Overall, a good broad guide to a variety of photo-related items. Great on both daguerrotypes and magic lantern slides. Great on cameras and photographic equipment. Very nice section on stereoscopes and stereoviews. Not quote as strong as I would like on magic lanterns. But overall, very helpful.
This book is great and covers what it says it does, My problem was that I thought that this was a general Vintage Camera Price Guide which I found it not to be, This book covers older rarer Cameras, many I have never seen and would say the ones listed are Museum Quality and Type. I was more interested in the types you see listed on E bay etc, I guess the more common collectable ones. Nevertheless this book is top notch if you collect or want info on the rarer cameras that you dont see many of.
The book didn't have enough images of antique cameras with values. There must be thousands of antique cameras and this book only had less then a hundred or so. It was of little to no value to a collector.
