An Essential Guide For Any Pez Collector
Many people like myself collect Pez dispensers. It is a wonderful hobby to have because it is virtually impossible to find every variation of every dispenser there is. Sometimes there are many different variations of a single dispenser, for example the colors that were made. This is where this guide comes in handy. In here you will find colorful pictures of almost every known dispenser made, along with pictures of some different variations. This helps you know what you are looking for when you want a certain dispenser. Listed also are estimated values of the dispensers, which is also helpful in giving you an idea of what that certain dispenser will cost you normally. Also pictured in this book are different inserts from the packages, different displays that were available, different flavor packs that have been packaged with the dispensers and even Pez with unique or foreign packaging. This is a great book for collectors and even those who are a little interested in Pez dispensers. The pictures and information make it easier to know what you are looking for, so if you are looking to collect Pez I recommend this guide as it will be a big help to you.

Cool Pictures, Cool Book
This book has very colorful pictures and the price guide is extremely accurate.This is one of the best PEZ books ever.If you collect, get this book today!

a new cover.......wow
This is the same as all the last. Prices have changed some but they reallyarent to acurate. If you have any other edition stick with it. The onlydifference here is a few "new" pics and a newcover...whoopie....This 4th edition could have been much better but fallsway short. Only purchase this if you are brand spankn new to pez collectingor if you lost your older edition

Awesome reference guide
This book is the ultimate guide to pez collecting. Very informative and helpful for anyone collecting dispensers. If you don't like this book you probably can't read anyway. Must Have.

My copy's well worn!
I take this guide with me everywhere.It's not much bigger than a TV Guide and lists every Pez dispenser and variation known to exist.The pricing guide is just what it says -- a guide.There are always regional differences in prices.If you're a regular flea market and garage sale pez buyer, this guide's great.

Waste of money!!
Sorry to even have to give this one star. This is a joke and the only use I have gotten out of it, is lining my bird cage. Don't waste your money.

The answer for new PEZ collectors!
A must have book for anyone selling or buying PEZ online. It always pains me to see someone pay way too much for a PEZ collectable. This book is a great tool to fight back against those who would take advantage of newcollectors. ... Read more

Lot of Information
Good book for the person who loves a large amount of information on Pez. If you are mainly wanting a guide and pictures I suggest "Collectors Guide to Pez : Identification and Price Guide Exhaustive research that ultimately exhausts the reader
There's a lot of good information in "Collecting PEZ" by David Welch. Unfortunately, you'll have to wade through a lot of irrelevant stories and details to find it. As someone who has been collecting PEZ for years, I would recommend this book only to the very serious collector who's geniunely interested in how the PEZ company evolved into an international candy conglomerate. For the beginning collector, I would recommend Shawn Peterson's "Collectors Guide to PEZ," which contains more photographs and more current information.

The definitive bible of PEZ Dispensers and PEZ history
David Welch exhaustively investigates the history of PEZ in the US through interviews with former employees of PEZ and early distributors. Included are a price guide; a PEZ timeline; and hundreds of pictures of the dispensers, the people, and the places that are PEZ. In addition, Mr. Welch has assembled one of the largest `paper' collections of PEZ related ad sheets, displays, and premium offers found anywhere in the world and adds many prints from his personal collection giving the reader a true feel for the evolution of what has become one of the hottest collectables today. ...

Great guide for any PEZ collector!
With the highly detailed and close-up pictures, this guide is a must for any PEZ dispenser collector-young or old.Although the prices may be out of date now, the detailed descriptions of each dispenser add to the already unbeatable identification and price guide.The book includes a list of PEZ conventions throughout the United States of America and a glossary of PEZ terms that every collector should know.With the unbeatable pictures, the detailed descriptions, and the glossary, this book is a must.

Awesome reference book for PEZ collecters & PEZ lovers!
Without a doubt, my favorite guide to PEZ dispensers available!Nice colorful layout, with great descriptions and information on the history of PEZ. This is the one to own!!!Buy it!! Excellent Reference
Being a personal friend of Shawn Peterson would probably leave you with the notion that I have a biased opinion.Having known him for a number of years and knowing his passion for collecting PEZ, I assure you that a significant amount of time, effort, and research went into this book.In reading a couple of, what I feel are unwarranted, negative reviews of this book I'd wholeheartedly disagree with their assessment.This is an outstanding book of reference with excellent photography and informative narrative.I recommend it to anyone in the hobby, or anyone simply wanting to reflect back to their childhood and reminiscing about a much simpler time in life.He's done an outstanding job in assembling an historic perspective of the company, rare and unusual dispensers, as well as common variety and new offerings.Buy with confidence and enjoy! ...

Helpful
This book was very helpful to me. Easy to use and lots of pictures to help you out.

Everything you need to know!
This book is a must for Pez collectors! I have a huge collection myself, and I still found some that I don't have. It even helped me find the value of my collections, and now I know how much I should be paying when I go searching for Pez. It also includes informative facts and history on these crazy little dispensers. ... Read more
