DESCRIPTION OF ITEM This one is a neat vintage BOOK, as shown, the collector (Kennett Neily) liked to date his items when he picked them up, often that was the only time he opened up the books he collected. if i saw a date i took a photo of it. i show many photos of books so you know the exact condition of the item you are considering, check my feedback, to see all my happy winners. THIS IS A GREAT item from the amazing "White Mountain Collection" from the collector Kennett Neily, you may have heard of his amazing comics, known for being date stamped (or written) the day he purchased (province) them and left in usually unused condition, well this is another one of his items, if he date stamped it i show it in the photos. WHY HAVE HIS COMICS SOLD FOR SO MUCH MONEY: CONDITION, CONDITION, CONDITION--and look at these books, WOW... In 1984 a man approached Jerry Weist, owner of "The Million Year Picnic" comic shop in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with a small sampling of comics from his collection. This initial meeting was the hobby's introduction to what is now referred to as the White Mountain Collection. Few collections of Silver Age books approach the consistently high level of condition and page quality that White Mountain copies possess. Weist would eventually become the organizer for Sotheby's comic book and comic art auctions. In that capacity, he introduced the collecting world to this fabulous discovery, offering choice samplings in Sotheby's 1991, 1993 and 1996 auctions. Many collectors are still not aware that the collection's large body of Silver Age publications also included a small sampling of choice, early Underground Comix. It should also be said that most collectors have yet to grasp the significance of that inclusion. For most Silver Age collectors, the UG's are the forgotten books of the period, and this is a serious omission on their part. AND EVEN FEWER KNOW AB0UT HIS COLLECTION OF SCIENCE FICTION BOOKS, H.P LOVECRAFT ITEMS (he published a zine called Lovecraftian Ramblings in the 80's), MAPS, TRAVEL BROCHURES, TV GUIDES, CAR MANUALS, MAGAZINES, ART, ETC. also in amazing, mostly unread mint condition. the scale behind the item is in inches I PACK BETWEEN CARDBOARD FOR PROTECTION AS SHOWN, USE EBAYS ZOOM IN FEATURE TO GET A GREAT LOOK AT THE ITEM UP CLOSE, and email me any questions, please.
