As industry leader for nearly 50 years, Warman's has consistently fulfilled a responsibility to its users: To provide reliable, up-to-the-minute pricing and information, and to continue to grow and change to better serve the antiques and collectibles community. New this year to the often-imitated "Warman's format" are reproduction alerts, larger type, and bigger photos -- all presented in a new jumbo size.

Each new edition features an expanded Board of Advisors (fifteen advisors have been added this year) as well as new categories and features that reflect collecting trends. Categories new to this edition are Miniature Paintings, Lace, Lefton China, Tucker China, and Yard Long Prints. Also included are drawings designed to help identify Depression Glass patterns. Of course, the features you've come to rely on year after year are still here:
