[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 4084939, member: 34578"] I got not 1, but 2, difficult to acquire and typically expensive books last week. These are typically listed on eBay for $100 & up each. I got lucky and found a couple of sellers with a bit more common sense. Got the pair for about $80. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20230731_012553.jpg"]397713[/ATTACH] I was a bit disappointed in the Bill West book. Although it has good info, it's just not as complete and not as well put together as the other books in this series. The Kimmel book I bought completely blind as to it's contents and I was not disappointed. It's more like a collection of various other publications and reference material. But what it contains is pure gold. Lots and lots of vintage ads, catalog pages, historical papers, etc. The pics below are from this book.
