Note
to buyers.
Although the underlying book material is
now in
the public domain due to their age, much
additional editing,
 cropping and
deleting of erroneous
material has also been carried out
personally on all,
making this book set a unique and a much improved offering.
It is provided here at a
particularly low cost, mainly to cover materials plus
various associated overheads including eBay fees. It is now presented here in a convenient Adobe Reader
form (.pdf files) suitable for all computer systems.
This allows for all the really essential illustrations and
photos to be shown, as opposed to the text only
versions available. It consists of
both private and publicly available material
including a number of ex libris volumes.
|
The
Adobe Reader itself (and its updates) is completely free to download from the Adobe web
site,
although it usually comes pre-installed as
standard on most computers.
|
Overall, a nice collection at a low price that
isn't
going to break anyone, so go right ahead and Treat Yourself!
*
Please note that a number of the old books
scanned will naturally show signs of age, such as an
occasional watermark or browning/fading and although
readable with minor adjustments to the options
provided with the software they may not be
in as pristine a condition as may be expected from
newer volumes. Therefore allowances should be made
accordingly.
