Schiffer Publishing, 2001, ISBN > 0-7643-1384-3 > > Dear Lacemakers, The above is the American version of the earlier book by Heather Toomer: "Lace - Guide to Identification of Old Lace", Batsford, 1989, ISBN 0-7134-5701-5, $48 when new in the U.S. There is additional information (and more pages) in the newer book from Schiffer, making it a better value at this time. However, if you have the older book, you might prefer something with completely new content for your carefully-saved book money. I think I compared these two books on Arachne last year, so will stop my report now.
