2.0 out of 5 stars Totally NOT The 80s!
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2013

If you are looking for a good visual reference books on early 1980s fashions this book is "totally NOT" it, dude! Most of the photos are from nearly an entire decade earlier; the photo credits on the second page even state that they came from Sears Roebuck catalogs circa 1974-1976. Now, Sears has never been known as a bastion of cutting edge fashion, however, although there's always a transitional period from the last decade to the start of every decade, the four year difference between 1976 and 1980 is stretching it like spandex! I doubt even Sears would continue to sell/feature the same things in its 1980 catalog that it previously had in its 1976 one! Photos are deceptively labeled as from 1983 catalogs when the credit states they're from 1974 catalogs. Since this is a Schiffer publication, it also gives rough approximate values for items as "collectibles," thus, the mis-dating, or deliberate deception, is even more egregious, as those who don't remember the 1980s, or who weren't born yet, aren't receiving an accurate reflection of 1980s items and prices for them. I can't imagine Sears catalogs from the early 1980s don't exist, so there's no accounting for mid-1970s photos being passed off as early 1980s ones.
