Books For Sale

[Bookbug]

I came into several boxes of books from a friend and little did I know that 5 boxes were full of books on hunting and a few gun books. I found this site from a Google search and thought I would see if there is interest in any of these titles. All of the books came from the same person I think it was an estate but I am not certain. Almost all of the books look like they may have had a bookplate or name sticker that was cut out of the first, or second page. Most of the books are hardback, some are signed, some are limited edition all are in good condition the Asian Hunter books dust cover is not in the best of shape but the book is ok. I have about 40 more books I believe they are on bird hunting, guns, New Zealand hunting and other hunting topics. If anyone has interest I will post detailed photos prices and do my best to answer any questions. I do not have knowledge on hunting and very little on guns but I do appreciate books and I hope to find these books an new home.

Photo 1 is of the books I think are about Africa and Asia. The other 2 photos are two of the books I picked to show that some have the corner cut out and some do not.

Thank you,
Bookbug

[Rare Breed]

[Green Chile]

I was lucky to find a copy after selling mine years ago for some dumb reason. Fingers crossed!

 

[Hunter4752001]

Congrats. I would have loved to have got either Drums of the Morning or Into the Thorns.

Being your first post, welcome to AH!

 

[Bookbug]

Pleas do not think that I am ignoring any question. I did not expect such fast response to the post. I thought I would have time to get prices but some of these books are hard to find on the internet. If I was suppose to put prices right away I am sorry for the mistake. I will post prices and any thing else about the books as soon as I can.

Thank you BnC 04 for the welcome. This is way out of my comfort level.

The cut corners in some of the books where from a library embossed name. They removed the name of the previous owner in most of the books.
I would prefer to ship in the US as I am not familiar with shipping over seas, but I can work with people if someone really wants a book. I can take personal checks, money orders, I have Pay pal but I am not sure how they are with hunting and gun things. If you do get a book we can work the payment out cost of shipping.

Here is a list of prices for the books. The prices in the internet are all over the place. So I did my best in coming up with pricing.
