| Warman's PEZ Field Guide / Shawn Peterson : 4 of 5 | |

 This was another great birthday gift from my pal Dae, who is well aware of my PEZ addiction! I have several other books on PEZ collecting, but I had only just realized this book had been released when he sent it to me. This is a small format (four inch square) yet really thick book filled to the brim with perfectly clear, professional photos of nearly every PEZ dispenser in existence. Each dispenser lists a little bit of information, such as production year and approximate value, but generally the photos are the stars of the book. It's a lot of fun to see dispensers worth thousands of dollars that I'll never run across (even some where the photo depicts the only known existence of the dispenser!), as well as seeing everything in my collection and realizing how things have gone up in value. There's also an illustrated glossary at the end with detailed photos to explain PEZ terms like sleeve, channel, spine and so on, including ways to identify deceptive fake dispensers. The result of reading this book is I really want to expand my collection with some expensive PEZ! Maybe I need to start checking eBay more often.
