Excellent Book on Pewter Fakes - $22 - (Lexington, MA)

Here's a very useful and valuable reference tool--especially appropriate to buyers of pewter on Ebay--where so much relatively-modern reproduction pewter is sold as authentic and antique. The text is in German, but the pictures tell the whole story--illustrating catalog photos from Weygang and other "grand tour' pewterers of ca. 1900, as well as phony marks, copies, and otherwise fraudulent pewterware produced in the 20th century. 88pp. softbound, published in Hannover, 1989. Contributions by three experts: Drs. Hse Baer, Hanns-Ulrich Haedeke, Theodor Kohlmann, and Hugo Schneider.
