Book excerpt: All-new Book Three is a companion volume with none of the pieces pictured repeated from the previous books. This highly informative guide distinguishes those 'Made in Japan' ceramics from other Japanese export ceramics such as Nippon, Noritake, and Occupied Japan. Over 650 beautiful color photographs together with a special section on marks and backstamps aid the collector in identifying and dating a collection. Special focus is given to the many styles, and different glazes, as well as reproductions to be aware of in the market. An unbelievable amount and variety of items are featured in this fun, colorful book - from ashtrays to wall pockets, figurines, pincushions, planters, souvenirs, bookends and much more. 1998 values. 8.5 X 11.
