My grandfather collected books. I believe many are pretty rare and niche. Since his passing a couple decades ago, I think quite a few have already been sold or walked off. Going through some areas in preparation for an upcoming estate sale I took just a couple pictures of some of them.

Lots of old j frank dobie stuff I didn't take pictures of. I think you should be able to zoom in on some of the titles. If anyone sees anything they are interested in I'll provide some details on sale.

I'm on a short leash for new books but here are a few I grabbed.

One of the books had a newspaper article from the 40s stuck between pages

You should post when the estate sale is.

Hey Sir, messaged you

He sure liked "A Distant Trumpet" by Horgan

I spotted at least 3 different copies

Date is not set yet…probably in 2-4 weeks. About 45 minutes sw of Austin.

I'm real curious about that "Atom Bomb Box Score". I wonder if it said USA 1, Japan 0.

Edit - Nevermind, I neglected to notice that was in relation to the Bikini testing. So I guess it was a listing of ships sunk by that testing.

Need to keep my dad as far away from there as possible. He'll buy all of it lol. That Western Beef Cattle art is right up his alley

That would have been great! Just a description of ships sunk in test

That D-Day headline is awesome.

That collection is a worldview sitting on a shelf.

Very cool. Do you have a price in mind for the entire collection?

I don't. Unfortunately, I'm not in position to even negotiate for that. Sale will be March 6-8. When there is a link available I will post. The pictures showed maybe half of the books.
