ORIGINAL HANDBOOKS AND CATALOGS for sale
Am strapped for cash, and with great reluctance am offering the
following Vintage-car books for sale. Most of these books
belonged to my father who had a car dealership in London in the
1920/30's. Am intent as selling them as a single lot, but if you
have need for a particular item, would be prepared to photocopy at
$1.00 per page in black & white and $2.00 in colour.
