    My item arrived so insanely well packed that I used the inner layer as gift wrap! My sister enjoyed her present and was amazed that it looked like new, I say it was even better than the description. I'm a happy customer, Thank you very much.

    Upon opening my package, I hesitated to open it because it was packed so well. Before choosing to purchase from this seller, I read the reviews. Many people mentioned how well their product was packaged. I did not want to open the package, savoring the care that went into boxing a book I purchased. Eventually, I opened it and found the book was in pristine condition. I am not an e-bay shopper; however, this book was a must-have. I am pleased with this seller.

  • Refectory description

    This book if you can find it is full of photos of scrimshaw items. Great reference book. Especially nice since wife and kids bought it as surprise for me in Memorial Day. A look on internet can lead you to a lot of scanned pages.
