 Some Reviews are Misleading April 19, 2000
Terry Foster (Winston-Salem, NC)

This book does contain Tiffany window designs which Tiffany created using Tiffany glass not modern glass. They reproduce very well when scanned. I use them in computer application of the designs. The book which has the postcards is "Tiffany Stained Glass Windows" by Alastair Duncan (ISBN: 0486253368)which I also bought. This book does have some colored images and when combined with the Duncan Postcards you can produce some nice images. Fifteen or sixteen of the postcards are images that are also in this book. I would suggest buyers consider getting them both.

If you are into doing windows in the style of Tiffany you need this book...lots of beautiful patterns which can be enlarged at your local copy center. There are color illustrations of many of the patterns which should help in selecting glass but, as usual, the actual glass selection is up to you. It would be nice if all the glass used was specifically identified (mfgr., cat. no., amount needed, etc.), but hey, then we wouldn't have all the fun (?) of agonizing over the selection.

The pattern book has a color cover showing probable color
choices for 16 windows and black and white outlines to enlarge
for stained glass makers. There are 60 pages of patterns with no
commentary as to original sizes, craft tips nor art highlights.
 The colorized images are attractive. March 30, 2000

There are 60 designs, with 16 color images on the front and back cover. The line drawings are difficult to determine the color of glass to use.
Not a "Pattern" Book December 27, 2009
Pamela L. Hoak (Lancaster, Pennsylvania)
This is not a "pattern" book perse... it is more of a guide book to make your own pattern if you want to use this book to create your own stain glass windows- you will have to take this to a place that will blow up the image for you. Also, you are going to have to guess the colors of many of the "patterns" as there is no color guide for many of the pictures in this book. 16 color photos are provided and there are 60 pages of designs. Buyer beware and be conscious of your use intended for this book. *Note: I wanted to use this book for gallery glass products and create a window design on my own windows at home. But I had to get the images blown up to size needed to accomplish this.
