Greetings from Scotty the Treasure Hunter! This is a beautiful book:) I recently acquired access to what is without a doubt the largest Railroad related Book Collection I have ever seen! Many of the books in this collection are First Editions, Limited Printings, and many are now out of print! The books are all a bit pricey but I can't help but think they are well worth their cost:) As long as the response is positive I will be listing these Books for a long time to come as the Collection numbers in the thousands!! Be sure to drop me a note if there is a particular Title you have been searching for as there is an excellent chance I will have it:) This Rare Book is Titled : American Railroads: Government Control & Reconstruction ... Author: William J. Cunningham. This is a 1922 First Edition published by the A.W. Shaw Company that was signed by the Author from Harvard (Cambridge) in 1924. The Book was then presented to the Director of the Boston & Maine Railroad Historical Society in 1981. It then became a part of this wonderful collection. This Book is hardcover and in excellent condition showing only slight wear. The book is 409 pages long. Very nice:)
For everyone, especially those who are new to my auctions:
I am not an expert in this items field. I describe the item to the best of my abilities and try to take good pictures. Please feel free to email any questions including requests for additional pictures. I will do my best to help and provide you with what you need to bid. With that said, this item is sold as is with no warranties. I use 'Shipping Calculator' to determine the fairest and most accurate shipping cost. I have added, depending on item size and weight, $1.50-$3.50 to this shipping cost to cover packing material, labeling and labor. I ship around 50-100 items per week and my days of scrounging packing materials are over...I've scrounged everything I can and it's all gone!...so, I have to buy boxes, bubble wrap, packing peanuts, tape, labels and ink. From what I've seen elsewhere this is a very reasonable fee to ensure your item arrives safe and sound and intact! If you are bidding on more than 1 of my auctions and the auctions end within a week of each other, I will happily combine orders to save on shipping and handling costs. But please, CHECK SHIPPING COSTS before bidding.
With all that said and done....most importantly......enjoy!!!
