Tom Power under the trading name The Collector in London Ltd has been selling china and ceramic and Resin collectables for over 30 years.  Many long standing collectors  will remember him from the 1980's when he owned and ran The Collector Shop  for 15 years in central London next door to Alfies Antiques Market in Marylebone. He is author of both The Collectors Handbook and Price Guide of Lilliput Lane Cottages and The Standard Reference and Price Guide of Coalport Figurines. In 2004 he sold his large china matching business to  former manager  Kim Cotton (www. tablewhere.co.uk)  to spend more time with his family and now deals from home in china and collectables as a smaller business.
