Everything Elephants: A Collector's Pictorial Encyclopedia

by Michael Don Knapik

Overview

This is the first collectibles book that provides images and information about a wide range of elephant collectibles. This compendium has over 900 color images in over 130 categories including: Figurines, Incense Burners, Ashtray, Bookends, Lighters and Paintings. Written by a self-described “obsessed” elephant collector, virtually every major manufacturer and artist, past and recent, has one or more representative pieces here, including: Aronson, Bayre, Bratsoff, Goebel, Lladro, Loetz, Meissen, Nast, Neiman, Passman, Ronson, Royal Doulton, Royal Haeger, Shawnee, Swarovski, Vanderveen, Wedgewood, and many, many more. In addition, relatively unknown works and one-of-a kind elephants are presented. The breadth is amazing! For elephant collectors this is a book like no other, beautifully illustrated and comprehensive enough to satisfy the most avid pachyderm lover.
