This is one of the earliest books on the subject of paperweights that made a serious attempt 
at identifying the different types of antique and modern weights.  Aside from the text, about half the book consists of drawings to assist in identification and the other half consists of color photographs. 

This is an important landmark reference for anyone interested in the identification of antique paperweights.  The book has long been out of print and good copies are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
