First Rate

As a long time collector of costume jewelry, figurals among my favorites, I have many guide books and was thoroughly pleased to find when I finally sat down to really read this book how well researched the material was and what a gifted writer Kathy is.
The price ranges are realistic and the variety of figurals featured as well as Kathy's obvious love of her subject will surely prime you to start "the hunt" as soon as possible.

Kathy Flood has a history of collecting figural pins and extensive knowledge of them. The book is delightful and very informative as well as very colorful and easy to read. There are so many items in this book that are rare and unusual, you will enjoy reading it. A must have, for a true collector or even a novice wanting to learn about the subject.

Warman's Costume Jewelry Figurals: Identification and Price Guide (Warman's) (Paperback)

I have dealt with Kathy for quite some time and have found her to be extremely knowledgeable about anything regarding pins. She and I converse quite frequently about Christmas tree pins and I have found her to be a true authority on all things "pin". This book is an example of her knowledge and expertise. I highly recommend it to anyone from novice to avid collector. The photography adds to its appeal. Take my word for it this is a great book. Carol Stolworthy
