This guide to book collecting covers everything: from the fundamentals of the trade -- how to begin a collection, where to find books, what to look for -- to the finer points, such as "knowledgeable buying," price variances, and investment potential. In addition, the guide includes an extensive list of "first books" for 3,500 authors, and provides estimated values for each title (in 1989 prices). It explains what to collect: how to identify first editions, proofs and advance copies, limited and paperback editions; pricing variances: how condition, age, and other factors determine a book's value; and building a collection: how to develop and care for it and determine its worth. Also: useful information on first-edition identification and authors' pseudonyms.
