Question Reference book or Guide?

Is there a particular book or guide that anyone would recommend to someone who is interested in collecting bottles? Just curious.

Default Bottle Guide

I would suggest the Hugh Cleveland Bottle Pricing Guide. I have one and really enjoy it.

The Antique Trader Bottles Identification and price guide is also a good Book, By Michael Polak.

I will check them both out. It doesn't appear that there is one guide that is considered as a standard throughout the hobby. Thanks for the information.
