Collectors of Photographic Books - Little Technical Library - Ziff Davis

As part of our downsizing I've decided to part with my collection of the Little Technical Library series of books. I've looked and cannot find a listing of all the photography books that may have been published under these names, so I can't tell you that it is a complete collection. I do suspect that December 7, 1941 might have had something to the dearth of books I have for 1941, perhaps my buyer was drafted or volunteered or Ziff Davis halted publication.

For their age the books are in pretty good condition. The covers are the original blue and you can see the ageing on the the plain interior and back pages. The printed pages and photographs/illustrations are in good shape.

I've looked at E Bay and folks are asking between $5 and $11 per volume. I'll part with the lot for $60 plus postage if they are going to a good home!

If you need a picture, PM me. They really don't look any different from what you will see on E Bay but there are no dust covers, just the blue binding.

The following is the list of books by publishing year.
