[Mccoypottery-talk] Cookie Jar books cheap

[~barb]

The book by Mike Schneider is the best cookie jar book out there!  It shows 
pictures of marks, how the base is finished, along with a terrific history 
of the many companies..  In fact the section on McCoy cookie jars is 
amazing, there are over 275 different pictures just of McCoy jars. Yes the 
crock with the bands is there, as well as the log cabin -- both asked about 
earlier this week.

The book is "The Complete Cookie Jar Book".



There book is up to its fourth edition -- there is not much difference in 
the different editions, a bit of pricing changes, etc.. you can probably 
find version two or three quite cheap. I wouldn't get version #1 -- it was 
done at the height of jar prices and prices are not as realistic as the 
later versions.

I cannot recommend this book more highly ...   I have seven or eight 
different jar books -- this is the best.
