A directory of contact information
for the collecting community

For fourteen years Maloney's was hailed as the "...best one-volume research tool in print." (Gannett News Service) and as a Best Reference Book (Library Journal.)

Once published in book form, Maloney's will henceforth be an online—a unique clearinghouse for hard-to-find information not only about antiques and collectibles, but also about art, gems & jewelry, dinnerware/flatware/crystal matching services, contemporary collectibles and, basically, resources for any type of personal property including antique cars, machinery & equipment, and even vintage airplanes!

Maloney's is the only resource of its kind! You will need nothing else. Others try to imitate, but none duplicate the power, thoroughness or accuracy of Maloney's.

Chock-full of 20,000 resources (with links to thousands of email addresses and websites) covering over 3,200 categories of antiques, collectibles and other types of property, Maloney's is the ultimate directory for professionals, dealers, collectors and anyone else, for that matter, interested in studying, valuing, repairing, collecting or selling their antiques and collectibles.

I am pleased to announce that Maloney's also provides consumer and public awareness resources which disseminate information about such important issues as:

  • recognizing fakes & reproductions
  • recovering stolen art
  • protecting our nation's endangered species and heritage resources including Native American cultural artifacts and archaeological sites

Maloney's now includes many categories of specialists:

  • Experts
  • Appraisers
  • Art Theft Registry & Recovery Resources
  • Collector Clubs
  • Periodicals
  • Grading Services
  • Dealers & Collectors
  • Museum & Library Collections
  • Matching Services for China/Flatware/Crystal
  • Pricing Resources
  • Heritage Resource Information
  • Reproduction Sources
  • Auction Services
  • Internet Resources
  • Endangered Species Regulations
  • Suppliers of Parts
  • State Historical Societies
  • Modern & Limited Edition Collectibles
  • Collector Reference Book Sources
  • Repair/Restoration/Conservation Services

Currently being updated, Maloney's will be better than ever! In its new form as a subscription-based resource, Maloney's will continue a tradition of providing comprehensive resource information for the antiques and collectibles trade. Read these reviews of the printed version.
