About
For nearly 25 years on eBay and many years before that ... my focus has been pre-1940s popular fiction ... specializing in Golden Age mysteries to PhotoPlay editions of silver screen classics ... along with boys' & girls' series books blended in with plenty of adventures from the swashbucklers of Captain Blood and Scaramouche ... to historical adventures of the Musketeers versus Richelieu ... from Sherwood to the gates of the Bastille ... I enjoy them all.
In recent years, I have begun offering digitally remastered dustjackets of dozens upon dozens of scarcer titles acquired in past decades to offer collectors the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful cover art of the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s. It's always a pleasure to see a vintage book reunited with the original artwork it was once paired with when first sold many decades ago in the old bookshops throughout America. I hope to restore many more of these wonderful dustjackets in the years to come.

One of the top sellers on EBay! Very responsive to questions about the item. The price of the dust jacket was amazing and the shipping price was very reasonable. This is a much needed business. I really appreciate being able to restore vintage books to their original “look”. The dust jacket was extremely well packed and some lovely, nostalgic bookmarks were added in the shipment. Looking forward to future purchases. You can’t go wrong here. Highly recommended. Thank you so much! Sharon Lewis

Excellent & Accurate Digital Scale
Excellent postage scale. I'm getting very accurate results which match the post office scale down to 0.1 of an ounce, just what the doctor ordered.

Black Bartlemy's Treasure - J Farnol US 1st, Dodd, Mead
In this piratical adventure, Farnol recounts the swashbuckling days of the buccaneers of the Spanish Main painted in brave, bright colors. Martin Conisby, Lord Wendover, embittered by his five years of slavery on the Spanish galleon Esmeralda, escapes during a sea fight to an English ship and makes his way back to England, determined to avenge himself on Richard Brandon, who was the cause of his father's death and his own ill-treatment.
Broken in body and spirit, Conisby arrives home one night disguised as a tramp, just in time to save from the hands of robbers a beautiful girl, Lady Jane Brandon, the daughter of the man whom he has sworn to punish. In a tavern he meets a pal, Adam Penfeather, who unfolds to him the story of Black Bartlemy, an infamous pirate, and his treasure buried on an island -- a treasure of fabulous value that has been the dream and hope of roving adventurers along the Spanish Main for many years.
The search for that treasure makes for a surprising adventure.

Great Value & Important Maintenance Item
So far, so good. Working very well and simple install.
For those that may be having trouble with limited suction power, make sure to check that the bag is properly connected, and [insider tip] the belt is not slipping. A slipping belt will limit suction and leave you wondering if the vacuum may be out for the count. So changing the belt is a worthwhile step to try, it often works and the vacuum repair shops will always recommend it.
