Old Radio and Electricity Books for Sale

[James P Rybak]

I am interested in the history of electricity, wireless, etc.  I collect
old books on various topics related to electricity and wireless.
The following are some duplicate books I have in my collection.  I want
to sell them to make room for some additional books.  All the books have
good, tight bindings.  Some of the books are ex-library and some of the
covers may have scuff marks but all books are sound specimens with
tight bindings and are in great shape considering their ages.  The
condition of the books listed below is my best "good faith" attempt to
describe how they are.  However, please remember that I am an amateur
collector and am not a book dealer.

Those of you who are familiar with the prices of old books will realize
immediately that I have priced these at considerably below today's
"going" prices.  Consequently, the prices are not negotiable.  Shipping
is extra and is $3 for the first book and $1.50 for each additional
book.  I will pay the shipping on orders of 5 or more books.
