Today's list contains a number of fairly scarce items from a private library. Unfortunately some of these (mostly the Mertens) have water damage to the bottoms and in those with coated paper for the plates the plates are sticking together at the bottom. I have priced these accordingly. I do have other copies, in better condition, of a few of these but the prices are higher. Please ask if you have any questions about the condition.
Let me know if you would like anything from this list.
