  Any serious Disney collector must own one of these, this guide is very knowledgeable and includes many very rare examples of early Disneyana. The color pictures are clear and beautiful.

  I found this book to be an absolutely invaluable guide on all things Disney related.Every item is photographed and dated, from the earliest to the most current collectibles.

  We purchase every new edition of this book as soon as it is published. We keep the older versions, too. This is the best book available for identifying and pricing the Donald Duck and Mickey Sorcerer items that we collect.

  This has good information for current sales, it does not include all Disney collectibles however.

  This is a fantastic book for Disney collectors of all types and levels.
  I highly recommend it to anyone with half an interest in this field. If you don’t collect Disneyana before you buy this you certainly will once you get a copy in your hands. It covers so many areas and is very informative. Also it has fantastic pictures of many unknown treasures.

  Ted Hake, the King of Collectibles, has issued a book on Disneyana. I am very excited that this book is on the market. For novice collectors there are lengthy features regarding the history of different aspects of Disney collecting that will bring you up to speed. The articles also work for advanced collectors for detail reminders and a quick, all-in-one reference for those pesky details that will clear that bet you made. This book is hefty, and I know if Ted could have included even more he would have. Each inclusion features a very handy full color photo, detailed description, and a price break-down for varying conditions and parts (i.e. box value AND item value). The book is divided into sections for each character(s) or particular items (posters, four-color comics, Walt Disney, etc.)and items are listed in chronological order making the tome extremely easy to reference. Each section begins with a history of the characters or items, making dating items particularly easy. Prices listed are realistic, fair market value; however you have to make up your own mind what you would sell/pay for any item. I am a Disneyland collector so I especially appreciate the sections on Disney Park items. Perhaps in the future the Disney Parks sections can grow…or perhaps a book only on Disneyland collectibles…! But that is only my own desire, not a complaint. This is the first reference book I reach for these days. Every good Disneyana fan or collector should own it!

  Ted Hake has dealt in Disney collectibles for 40 years, and he has turned his experience into a true collector’s companion. This book is a must for both the novice and advanced collector of (early) Disneyana. The selection of items is excellent, discussing great pieces not only from the US but from the entire world.

  Was not overly impressed with the coverage of collectibles in this guide. Can’t be too specific except to say I perused the book when I received it a month ago and have not even opened it a 2nd time. Pretty much a wasted purchase. Sorry to be so critical.

  As Disney collectors, we are constantly looking for that great deal! This book not only has an extensive listing of Disney collectibles, it is small enough to carry in a pocket or backpack. Just what my husband needed. He was really happy that it was under the Christmas tree for him this year.
