Book Reviews of Heywood Wakefield (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Book Review: A must-have for Mid-Century-Modern afficianados
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is beautifully illustrated, showing every item procuced by the company in the mid-century era. It gives production and design details, designer credits, comments on relative scarcity, and estimates of market values as of the date of printing. I was lucky to have bought the dining table shown on the cover even before learning about the existence of this book. Now I look forward to using the book as a guide during my further acquisitions of companion pieces for my Mid-Century Modern condo in Palm Springs.
