Reason for Reporting
BOOK COLLECTIONS FOR SALE: I have collected books all my life, particularly non-fiction fishing volumes that span the historical time frame of the past to the present. As I become more conscious of my dotage (87 next), realising that my grandchildren have little interest in the marine world, I would like to see most of my collection finding a home with passionate fishing freaks like myself. I am therefore listing parts of it in parcels representing far less than 50% of their likely value, but will consider offers from anybody who can make me feel that they will appreciate them and their real value. The first three collections would be of inestimable value to the education curriculum of your children or grandchildren. For further details please phone me, Jack, at 083 654 0257, (WhatsApp or straight).
