Table of Contents
Description:
Christmas pins, once considered to be mere fanciful novelties, have become highly sought-after prizes by many of today's serious collectors of costume jewelry. Gallina has included detailed histories about many of the major Christmas pin designers of past and present, including Beatrix, Hob, Trifari, Carolee, Monet, Stanley Hagler Anke, Bauer, and more. Over 400 new pins have been added to this edition, which now features over 700 of these glittering beauties in more than 325 detailed close-up photographs. There are Christmas trees, wreaths, Santas, sleighs and sleds, bells, reindeer, stockings, angels, candy canes, ornaments, candles, snowmen, and even a section on patriotic Christmas designs. A directory of Internet sites that specialize in Christmas pins is an added feature of the book, as well as a helpful bibliography and index.
Publisher's Review:
This edition includes information on dating, pricing, and designers past and present, but the photos are the best attraction. Every category is illustrated, with identification and prices. Anything you may have put on your Christmas list is here. Lovers of Christmas jewelry will treasure this volume.
