The Complete Cookie Jar Book (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
As American in origin as the totem pole, the cookie jar was born in the 1920s, grew up in the 1940s, and became highly collectible in the 1980s. Relying on more than 2000 color photographs, Mike Schneider presents a visual and textual history of this unique kitchen art form in The Complete Cookie Jar Book, the largest and most thoroughly detailed work ever published on this subject. The main focus is on American pottery cookie jars, but also covered are imported jars, and jars made of other media, such as glass and plastic. The only book to record the heights of jars, and to offer photographic images of marks, this volume serves as the collector's most complete and indispensable identification reference.
