The Wonderful World of Collecting Perfume Bottles by Jane Flanagan (2008, Hardcover, Illustrated edition)

The Wonderful World of Collecting Perfume Bottles, Second Edition, presents many surprises. In addition to updating important articles that were shown in the author's first volume, information about the W. & H. Walker Company has been added. The Bacorn bottles are shown again, with recent findings. 'The Ladies and Gentlemen of the Club' features nine wonderful articles from three prominent International Perfume Bottle Association (IPBA) members. The mystery of identifying the IRice bottles is explained. Russian bottles, never before shown in books, are also presented. Many of them are still easily found, but not easily identified. 'Hooray for Hollywood!' shows many magnificent Czechoslovakian bottles and tells of the influence perfume bottles had on Hollywood. 'Vintage Vanity Vignettes' gives decorating tips and showcases the up-and-coming popular collectible, the perfume scent card. This new volume presents approximately 100 new bottles from the author and over 200 bottles from IPBA members' articles.
