   This book is one of the very few I have found to be quite useful when searching for information/prices on Vintage Ceramic Christmas Collectibles. It has many Lefton, Napco, Holt Howard and Enesco, pieces. However, it also contains many of the harder to find pieces, Dickson, etc. It also has fantastic photos of each and every piece. It really is a MUST HAVE for any Vintage Christmas Collector!!!!
