Bentley Collection Guide: The Reference Tool for Consultant, Collectors and Enthusiastics of Longaberger Baskets FROM THE PUBLISHER
This guide is dedicated to those who enjoy collecting Longaberger baskets and is one of the easiest guides you will ever use. These baskets have been growing in popularity since 1973 when the founder, Dave Longaberger, and his children began to teach others how to weave the baskets prized for their quality. In this guide you will find actual selling prices, and up-to-date listing of all Longaberger Products, a "Quick Find" index, along with information about how to identify and appraise these products. As a reference tool for Collectors and Consultants, it can be used as a training tool, sales tool, price guide for buying and selling, inventory record, insurance/replacement cost evaluation tool, and identification guide. There are more than 800 full-color photos indexed under collection types which provide specific features, description, dimensions, date, original price, values depending on condition (Avg/High reported selling prices).
