Hardcover: 265 pages, Publisher: Rick Hacker (December 1, 1999), Language: English, ISBN-10: 0931253101, ISBN-13: 978-0931253102. Very informative book on collecting, especially certain makes and eras. The pictures are informative (but not exciting). An enjoyable read, and well worth owning, although it has been said that Hacker has a somewhat pompous writing style and does some name dropping.
