This book was long in coming. A company which manufactures a figurine of this quality deserves to be recognised and catalogued. Marilyn Sweet has done just that with a book which is complete in every way. The History and story of Border Fine Arts is well researched and well explained. To those of us who have collected these items for years now have a great guide which we can turn to. The book is well indexed and offers great information on pricing(USA, Canada and UK), location of manufacture, issue date and retirement date of each figurine. Illustraions are offered for most of the figurines listed, some in colour and some in black and white. With all the information in the market on collectibles it was time Border Fine Arts had a comprehensive guide for collectors and thanks to Marilyn Sweet we now do.
