Mom was in the antique business for decades. She used to have a store on Irving Place where she held court for years. Before the age of the internet, she was an encyclopedia of information on all sorts of antiques. Her secret was that she studied books about antiques. I am selling off a small subset of her antique guides, 17 books in all, with the hope that you will get as much use out of them as she did.

These books will give you a great introduction to the world of antiques, from pottery to porcelain, from furniture to carpets, from Disney kitsch to Victorian classics. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, there is something for everyone here. You can either buy the entire collection of 17 books for $30 or buy any individual volume for $5.

2. The Dictionary of World Pottery and Porcelain
3. American Antique Furniture Volume 1
4. American Antique Furniture Volume 2
5. Kovels' Collector's Guide to Limited Editisons

My mom collected antiques her entire life. She loved going to flea markets and thrift stores in search of hidden treasures. Now that she has passed I am selling off her collection.
