I have a two hardback books for sale.

Smith's Standard Encyclopaedia of Gas, Air, & Spring Guns of the World by W.H.B.Smith. Early Edition 1957. Good clean copy and the dust cover is in remarkably good condition for the year.

I also have the much newer re-printed edition of the same book (2009) also in hardback but with a gloss printed hard cover. This one is new and unread.

Although both books were printed in the USA, the 50 year date difference in the binding and presentation between these two books is fascinating - the newer book is the same size but almost looks like it is a facsimile version (perhaps it is?).

These are fairly big and heavy books , but if bought together I will post them both free of charge for £35.
