Lladro Authorized Reference Guide/2006 Edition

The Guide arrived in a timely fashion, in excellent condition. I would use this supplier again. Well done! Barbara G

Great reference guide

This reference guide is meant to be just that. It gives much important information on when the Lladro was issued, the year last produced if it isn't available anymore, the retail prices during those two time frames, and reference numbers, name, and height. Also, it gives information on if it is a Collector's Society issue, or Limited Edition issue. The pictures help (alhough I wish they were in color), because sometimes you may not know the reference number, so you can look for the figurine under categories which are listed in the table of contents. Also, the back of the book lists the items numerically or by retirement year. I have used my book countless number of times. It is invaluable to me. It helped me purchase my 20 or so Lladro's over the years. I really only prefer the Lladro, not the NAO. Hope this helps.

Complete reference to Lladro figurines

This reference is not intended to be a price guide for secondary values on Lladro figurines, and does not present itself as that - and has never been that. This new edition is set up as the prior editions and is a complete reference to all the pieces produced by the Lladro brothers from Valencia, Spain. Over 4000 porcelain objects from 1941 through the latest productions of 2006 are included. The figurines are organized by theme for easy identification. Each entry includes name, photograph, reference number, height, activity status (retired, etc), issue year and price, last retail price if there was a change, plus retirement year and price. All this info makes collectors completely informed regarding the status of the pieces and would serve as a reference in determining collectibility and value - based on rarity, status, and last retail.
