Published by Thomas Nelson and Son and said to be the fore runner of the pocket book. Almost all are soft leather and the rest are Moroccan leather. There are 189 leathers in either maroon dark green or blue colors and 21 blue faux leather, all from the turn of the last century 1900. All most all the classics some poetry a dictionary and a bible and a lot more. Conditions vary but most are good to very good with the od fair.

On my want list and from the catalogues I have read I am only missing a total of seven volumes in these covers of leather or blue rexine finish. If I had these and to the best of my knowledge I would have everything they published. I AM SACRIFICE THIS COLLECTION AT A VERY LOW OPENING BID WHICH REPRESENTS A VALUE OF $10 EACH. YOU CAN BET I PAID A LOT MORE THAN THAT. I AM DOWNSIZING. Please email me with any specific inquiry on an author or condition of a book. Additional pictures on request. Shipping will be pricey so email me your state of origin or province and I can calculate ahead of time. Powered by eBay Turbo Lister
