What do you guys recommend as far as a reference book on points & types?

Overstreet arrowhead price guide.  Anything by Noel Justice.  Also, you can join an archaeology forum.

I've got an overstreet guide, and Porjectile points of the midwest by Noel Justice.  He used to be out of Bloomington here.  He also made books for other parts of the country.  Look into one for your area.  I like both of these. dp

Library is a good source to check for above books. Also Primitive Technology Society ( ?) put out some awesome books as well. Oh, Waldorf book is a good starter as well.

I have some of waldorf's books. Problem is they are packed in boxes one the other side of the pile in storage. ???
