  This is the 34th Edition of this indispensable guide. The fact-filled book is in a large format and has colour throughout. The useful colour maps are easy to read and it contains all of the information, addresses, telephone numbers and speciality indices which have earned it the title 'bible of the antiques trade'. Every year the constant changes in the antiques trade are recorded and as a result the guide will be found in car glove compartments and on the reference shelves of enthusiasts and professionals both in this country and abroad. As a saver of time and wasted journeys the up-to-date edition is essential equipment for anyone connected with the world of antiques, be they buyer, seller or supplier of allied services. Information is easy to find. The guide is arranged by area: London is divided by postal districts while the rest of the country is split alphabetically into counties, then towns or villages. In-depth information about each shop includes not only the address, email address and telephone number, but also the date established, opening hours, type of stock and price range, details of location, where to park, name of proprietor and membership of trade associations. The guide also contains information on auctioneers, packers and shippers, a specialist dealers' index as well as a section on services to the antiques trade. Always reliable and unfailingly accurate, this is the ultimate guide.
