The Bottom Line
This is one of the best reference books I have read recently. Contains 24 chapters of well-explained and organized information. Clear and accurate photography. An avid collector wrote this guide and his enthusiasm for the topic comes through in the descriptions and his dedication to showing as much information as possible about PEZ.
Pros
- Well organized and colorful
- Written by a collector with an extensive collection
- Clear photography
Cons
- Only con might be that there is so much information that it can appear a bit crowded.

Guide Review - Collectors Guide to PEZ, Identification and Price Guide, 3rd Edition
People who are new to collecting PEZ will be well guided on how to identify the common and the more rare pieces. In addition to dispensers, items such as display boxes, collector’s pins, ad sheets and other miscellaneous and unusual pieces are included. The author also goes into detail pointing out the sometimes subtle differences to help the collector understand the many variations of Pez dispensers and how these differences affect their value and collectibility.
I recommend this book to anyone who is an experienced collector and to those who are considering collecting PEZ or are new collectors as a well-rounded reference book.
