    Wonderful experience from start to finish. I love these vintage items and the service was great. These were described perfectly and the packaging was top notch. The delivery was super fast. Great customer interaction. Quick responses when sending questions. Will shop here again. These original vintage items are well worth the price and they make a nice addition to my collection. I will tell others about my experience with this vendor. Memorable experience. Thank you! A++

    A lovely book, in excellent condition (as described); and so well-protected against the possibility of damage while in transit. Many thanks indeed to the seller for this. All aspects of the transaction have been trouble-free: price; meticulous accuracy of description; great care taken in packaging; speed of transit; scrupulously fair-minded and honest in communication. A first-class eBay seller. Highly recommended. Thank you, Steve, very much for a beautiful book.

    Great seller packaging well awesome!! Better than described! Great price! Shipping was great on sellers behalf although Atlanta USPS IS THE WORST!! Arrived at Atlanta USPS on time then they send to half the states in the nation only taking 2 weeks to arrive.
