A dear old friend, who for many years ran the local lbc shop (and just
recently retired) stopped by today and gave me a large box of old books and
catalogs. Some look like the originals of the re-prints TRF and Moss sell
and a few look unique.
If anyone needs copies, or want to use them (with a blood promise to
return them) feel free to contact me directly. If there is a library that
will keep them and make them available to restorers, I would consider
donating them.
The box includes:
