Primitives: Our American Heritage
This release is not only an identification and value guide to hundreds of primitive tools, furniture and household items, it is also a look at life in days gone by. Loaded with information and filled with photographs on primitives, this book is a must for primitive collectors. 1998 values. AUTHORBIO: Kathryn McNerney was well-known for her expertise in many fields of antiques and collectibles, including kitchen antiques, antique tools, primitives, blue & white stoneware, American oak and Victorian furniture, and antique iron. Her books saw many revised editions, and her books became standard references in the field. She left behind many followers who continue to consult her books and who have made them part of their permanent libraries. REVIEW: This book pays tribute to our American heritage and shows how primitive collectibles changed and progressed from the frontiers into the 1890s. Not only are current values given for the items, but descriptions on what the items were used for, in an "old-timey" style, are given by the author. A very interesting look at our past.
