I bought an antique camel-back trunk that needed lots of restoring and didn´t know how to start. My friend recommended this book, and I am so glad I bought it. Not only did it give step by step on restoring a trunk but it also had a refrence page on suppliers for trunk parts. I highly recommended this book to anyone who needs to repair trunks, lamps, pottery and frames. The furniture repair section was sort of brief; I would have like to see more on this topic.¤ 5) Paperback Book Antiques on the Cheap: A Savvy Dealer's Tips: Buying, Restoring, Selling by Storey Publishing, LLC.
