A good clean First Edition copy of the revised edition of "The Pewter Collector", by H.J.L.J. Massé, with revisions and additions by Ronald F. Michaelis, published by Barrie and Jenkins of London in 1971. The original work was written and published in 1921 , when Massé was regarded as one of the leading experts in the field of pewter collecting, at a time when there was little written information on the subject. The late Ronald F. Michaelis was in turn, looked upon as the foremost authority on British pewter of his day. Not only was he a Freeman of The Worshipful Company of Pewterers, but also a Past President of The Pewter Society and an Honorary Member of The Pewter Collectors Club of America. A work of considerable scholarship, this book is an essential work of reference for the serious collector and dealer. Superb well informed text with some black and white photographic plates plus line drawings. Hard covers, 280 pages, original dust jacket.
