My cabin is little I have two full books cases and have right full book cases at my.parents house and they are down sizing .I.Have tons of Alaska and Africa books .I am probably moving.to.Alaska sooner than later .
dgr,please let me know what books you are going to sell. I am interested. Also my preacher is a big Whelen fan + I load his .35 for him. I think he would be interested in your Master Rifleman book. I already have a copy.His mane is Peter + he is listed here on A.R. as tejas 07 (I think) I'll call him + ask him to check it out with you or just forward me your email addy + I will forward it to him.
O.K. I can see the writing on the wall;as we all know preachers don't make much money. So what do you want for Mister Rifleman? Here I go again.Perhaps my fortune will be great in heaven,it sure is not here.
I sent my.number on.pm .I have tons of Robert Ruark ,tons of Elmer Keith ,Tons of Jack oConner,bunch of steward white ,and a ton of safari.press trophy room books and tons of old first editions .I use to do SCI shows then went to Alaska .I am totally out of space till I build another room .My walls are full of heads so.no room.for book cases .I am keeping one set of Elmer Keith ,one set of Robert ruark ,one set of Russell Annabel and selling all the rest .I have some awesome old safari books .I even have Skeeter skeletons books and a bunch.more .
You should see MY study!! Also am curious if you have any Ruark that I don't already have,grenadine etchings + grenadines spawn.Never read them,they might be crap,but I don't have them.I have all of Annabell's + Keith's + a few of Skeeter's. I am always interested in 1st editions. I know we are at an empasse here as you have too many to list + I don't know what to ask what you have. I did get your P.M. but no price on Mister Rifleman,also I did not understand your message about the other Whelen books but again there was no price mentioned.Please P.M. with as little trouble to yourself,Thanks,Randy
