Established in 1985, this book has gone from strength to strength and is widely regarded as the antiques and collectables industry bible. Testament to the book's popularity is the fact that they have themselves become collectables with past editions selling for over $2,000.00 on the second hand market. This makes each new edition of the CARTER'S PRICE GUIDE TO ANTIQUES a must have for regular buyers to continue building their collections. The 2009 edition contains thousands of new colour photos (each edition is created from scratch with no repetition or updating of information) of antiques and collectables from a record number of contributors from all over Australia and New Zealand. With an updated, easy to follow presentation and comprehensive index, the 2009 edition of CARTER'S PRICE GUIDE TO ANTIQUES IN AUSTRALASIA covers every conceivable category of antiques and collectables from the dawn of time up until 1950 and is an essential reference for dealers, auctioneers, valuers and collectors.
