Not just a great mug book, but an excellent reference for all glass identification. Here are hundreds of patterns shown in beautiful color, many not found in other guides. This book is well organized by pattern theme (e.g. Plants, Diamonds, Historic, Beads, etc.), making it easier to find patterns when you aren"t sure of the name. In addition to the color pages, there are many sharp black and white pictures and catalog reprints. Mordock and Adams" work reflects the latest research on pattern names and company attributions. Some art-glass mugs and more contemporary items are also included. Pattern Glass Mugs is well indexed, with 1995 price estimates included with the descriptions.
