Roseville pottery has become a popular antique ware to collect, and with this guide the patterns can be identified, variations seen, and values estimated. The alphabetical organization is easy to use.
As author of the book, I thank everyone for their kind response. I am sorry that some of the pictures are not real clear but you must remember that these company plates were salesman sample pages some from the late 1900's. The newest pictures are from 1954. Since the book has been selling for six years now and has sold over 20,000 copy someone must be satisfied with the book. Watch for our new Roseville book coming out by the end of the year. It will be a collectors size book with all the pictures and prices plus place for all your information.
Roseville In All Its Splendor
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The Bomms' have amassed the finest single historical description of Roseville's output ever compiled, period. Several other people have produced excellent books but none as complete as Bomm's. They managed to access and photograph a nearly complete collection of Rosevile's catalogue pages which, if not pretty, definitively reveal the item number (get a magnifying glass) of each displayed piece.I don't vouch for prices quoted, but the information is irreplaceable.
Must have book!

This book is wonderful! As a novice in collecting Roseville, I don't know what I would do without it. "Roseville In All It's Splendor" has given me everything I need to buy wisely. The information is given in an easy to understand format. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't refer to this book. If you collect Roseville this book should be in your library. If you don't collect Roseville - buy the book anyway - it's a great art book!
Wonderful book, deserves 10 stars rather than 5

This is a wonderful book for collectors, dealers, or even if you just want to learn about Roseville. The pictures are awesome, and the price guide in the back is a great help. I would recommed this book above any other Roseville book.
