Description - Scottish Paperweights by Robert G. Hall

Fakes, copies, and reproductions are fully discussed and the text includes a substantial glossary of weight-making terms and a price guide. AUTHOR: Robert G. Hall has been a collector of paperweights for over 20 years, building up a mixed collection of antique and modern paperweights. He is the author of a previous book published by Schiffer: Old English Paperweights.
