Reviews

The heart of the publication, however, is the brief, charming, and in some cases downright enchanting collection of reminiscences by 84 member collectors. Each member’s entry runs from two to four pages making the book a delight to pick up for a quick read while at the same time leaving something to savor for yet another day or time. Each contribution includes a portrait of the collector ensconced in his or her lair with 45 additional images sprinkled throughout.
