Over 360 examples are shown in nostalgic and often graphically stunning reproductions, some rarely seen, from private collections.

The author explains where to find material for collections, what factors affect its condition and rarity, and discusses archival storage and protection procedures.

Future trends in collecting are explained giving helpful guidance to the growing numbers of collectors.
