Table of Contents
Description:
A continuation of Joan Van Patten's first five books, this sixth series contains absolutely no repeats from her other books. Once again she has included additional marks and more vintage ads, making this book jam-packed with new information. There are over 900 all-new, full-color photographs. Each piece has size, mark, and current collector value, and a useful index, glossary, and bibliography are attached. A history of the Noritake Company accompanies the other informative text, as well as Noritake Company design sketches and salesman's pages. Joan Van Patten, co-founder and past president of the International Nippon Collector's Club, is a qualified, trustworthy source for every Nippon collector, and her series is considered required reading.
Publisher's Review:
This book is the sixth in a bestselling seven-volume series by the author. A detailed history of Nippon, discussion on the manufacture of Nippon, hints on taking care of your Nippon, marking system, designs and techniques used on Nippon items, and Japanese symbols are all included. This series is considered "required reading" by Nippon collectors.

From inside cover: This book has been sold by the publisher / distributor at a reduced wholesale price for one of the following reasons: shipping damage, new edition has been released, out of print, too few available to advertise.
