Antiques & Collectibles Editorial Review
**** Miller’s: Powder Compacts: A Collector’s Guide serves as an informative resource for both new and seasoned collectors of cosmetic compacts. Encompassing a timeline from the 1920s through the 1990s, this 64-page booklet expertly breaks down various categories, such as enamels and novelties, while also providing visual examples that effectively encapsulate the styles and designs from different eras. Readers have appreciated the clear descriptions that accompany the images, which create a solid foundation for those just beginning their collection journey. However, while the booklet is praised for its valuable insights and practical tips regarding the care and maintenance of compacts, it is often noted that the content may skew towards British-made pieces. This focus may not fully cater to international collectors but does give a unique perspective on that specific market. Additionally, some customers have found the booklet to be relatively small Considering the price, which may lead to some disappointment regarding its size versus content density. Despite any criticisms, the overall sentiment is positive. Collectors continually highlight the booklet's fresh take and commend its ability to simplify the diversity of the compact world without overwhelming beginners. It stands out as a recommended starter guide and an appealing addition to a collector's library for those who already own more comprehensive texts on compacts. **
