Evaluation on antique American Hooked

hand-knotted-rugs Evaluation on antique American Hooked

I’ve enjoyed the Antiques Roadshow book and the descriptions which I will use for future reference.


Could this antique box be of any value?
I found an old Elgin-American antique American Hooked ladie's compact box, it looks very old and I was wondering if it could be of any value and where would be a good place to sell it.

  • Musich :

    If you are just getting into collecting, this is a fun book to review. Lots of overall ideas of varieties of collectibles…for more serious colletors, I would suggest books oriented to the subject matter of interest.

  • Ferrante :

    Most of the pages in this book are a drab black & white print, with a few (emphasis on few) pages in the middle that are glossy, full-color. I was thinking “coffee table book” when I bought it, but it’s definitely not that fancy. I sent it back.

  • Curran :

    Nice book and provides considerable information. The author does cover alot of territory in one book. Should consider a series and provide more photos.

  • Hou :

    If you are into collecting this is the book for you. It has lots of interesting facts and discussions about why people collect things and how to get started if you’re thinking about a collection.

    It doesn’t talk about EVERYTHING though, so if you are really into a specific collectible you would be better off with a book that addresses that collectible.
