J. Lee Drexler has been appraising fine art, furniture, jewelry, and antiques for the rich and famous for over 35 years.

The authors also provide advice on buying and selling art and antiques to help readers avoid getting cheated. This book appeals to those interested in selling and purchasing antiques and furniture as well as those interested in celebrity gossip. (Annotation ©2011 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
