    You would be a naked Mego collector without it, buy it, its a great document of Mego history.

                I have it - it offers a lot though I have always thought it is also lacking a lot.

                it is a must have regardless

                    Props to John for paving the way, it's a great book. However from a content perpective I think the Museum galleries cover things more completely than that book. That's nothing against John, it's just time has passed and we've updated as new information has presented itself.

                    So if you just don't want to spend money on a book, spend time looking at your Museum galleries.

                    Personally though, I had to have it, as well as Ben's book.

                            I've stared holes into my copy, it's a great resource.

                              No Mego collection is complete without Bonavita and Ben's book.
