Glamorgan Historian Volume Eight. Various. Stewart Williams. Very Good Very Good A very good book stamped "Langiwg Primary School" in a few places. Not surprisingly, the toddlers of Llangiwg have little interest in the antiquities of Glamorganshire, so the book appears to have been little used. Endpapers and page edges tanned, no inscriptions or other marks apart from those mentioned above. DJ is a little loosely fitting onto the book, and has a touch of rub at bottom of spine and slight wrinkle along top. A very nice example. Price:

Home Handicrafts Needlework and Repairs. Various Authors. London. Fleetway House. Very Good No Jacket A very good book, undated but feels thirties. Basically an A-Z of do-it-yourself and craftwork, from Accumulators, care of, to Writing Desk Set - disappointingly, nothing about Xylophone - make your own, Yucca - the care of, or Zebras - the key to successful breeding. Ah well. Pages browning, covers a little rubbed and dust stained, page edges foxed. No DJ. Fascinating reading. Price:
