Conversations with Historians

Perspectives on the European Past Part 1 (1971)

Given the age, this book is in great shape!  There is some discoloration that I believe is due to age. It has the original jacket and there are some minor tears on top left of front jacket and back bottom right of jacket.

My Bible Book (1946)

The pages are coming loose at the top (see photo) of spine but the pages, as of now, could be flipped and not fall out. It will probably need to be handled with care to not make the situation worse.  Would be a good collectible.  

Fifty Famous Fairy Tales (1946)

The main thing wrong with this book is that the pages are detached from the spine, like the glue just weakened.  (See pic)

Conspiracy, Cover-Up, and International Complications in the JFK Assassination Case

From the author of the #1 NYT bestseller I Heard You Paint Houses / The Irishman Featuring the eyewitness testimony of Earlene Roberts and Victor Robertson With this book, “Dallas” is now completely solved, by a professional and rational analysis. Charles Brandt, who handled over fifty-six homicides as the chief deputy attorney general of Delaware, in charge of all homicides and a private homicide defense attorney in the 1970s, has now used his hands-on professional experience in murder investigation and his analytic skills to conclusively solve every secret of the homicides of JFK, Officer Tippit, and Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas in 1963. As well, Brandt proves that “but for” the 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion, the Mafia would not have authorized any of these 1963 murders that form the basis of Suppressing the Truth in Dallas. Brandt solves everything for all time, and he exposes all the motives of those, such as Chief Justice Earl Warren, who intentionally attempted to suppress all of the truth.

The jacket has some tears and it quite delicate.  There is some browning on the inside cover and first page. (See photos) The rest of the book’s pages don’t have that browning on it.  There appears to be a gap between the pages and the spine (see photo).  No writing anywhere that I could see.  Open and closes fine and should be able to be used with a little extra TLC.

There are pages torn out of the book.  It’s pretty evident someone tore them out to use them to build birdhouses and then stuck them back in.  All pages are there.  I went through each page to check myself.
