This is a special sale! 67 Rare & Vintage Books are up for sale, . The publication dates range from 1876 to 1984. Some are SIGNED, some are FIRST EDITIONS, some are BOTH! The condition of each book varies, please see the photos and list below for a complete description. I\'m not a professional book appraiser, but I used the following loose system of terms to describe the condition of books, in order from best to worst condition:
LN/Like-New (almost no signs of wear)VG+/Very Good+ (very slight signs of wear)VG/Very Good (light signs of wear)VG-/Very Good- (minor wear)G+/Good+ (some wear, possible discoloration, possibly missing dust jacket)G/Good (medium wear, discoloration, warping, or missing dust jacket)G-/Good- (significant wear, discoloration, separation, possible damage, missing dust jacket)A/Acceptable (considerable wear, damage from use, aging, water, mildew or mold at one point)P/Poor (nearly falling apart, only one book is listed in this condition, the one from 1876)
Please keep these in mind as you read my description but also trust what you see in the photos; the books are being sold as-is and my system of evaluating may differ from yours. Collectors take note before you offer that many of the books are worn in some way and some smell of possible mildew.
One last note: because this is more than 100 pounds of books, I can send them to you via USPS Media Mail for around $70, or use FedEx Ground or UPS for faster but more expensive shipping. So message me after winning to tell me which you\'d prefer. So note that the \'calculated\' amount will likely not equal up to what you end up being charged. Thanks!
All that being said, these books are lovely, rare, some on obscure topics, and in general quite interesting. Take your time browsing and enjoy! Descriptions and photos follow.
