Item Description

This listing is for the exact book in the photos. Here an early copy of the definitive guide to antique firearms by the late Norm Flayderman. Printer was Digest Books Inc., publication date was 1983. Dimensions are standard 8 1/4 by 10 3/4 by 1 3/8 inches, 4 pounds shipping weight. Book is complete and original, no tears, only inscribed on the flyleaf by our Proprietor Emeritus who passed away in 2009 at age 98. The owner personally knew Mr. Flayderman and attended gun shows with him, Turner Kirkland, Vince Shiel, George Hoferkamp, Elmer Joyce, and a whole host of others in the 1950s and 1960s. As one writer put it, this Guide is generally not very deep, but it is specific and direct, covering production numbers, configurations, and other basic important details of an incredible breadth of American arms history. From the Colonial period and American Independence through the Spanish-American War, this work covers virtually everything.Surface detractions are moderate, principally edge wear, cover wrinkling, slight dog earing, and age toning. We rate it as Very Good, but photos should allow our distinguished shoppers to judge finish grade for themselves. Cover price was $18.95 in 1984. Present replacement pricing for the 9th edition is $44.99 on gundigeststore com.We’re offering the copy in the photos, however, for its original cover price. Own it for only $ 19.00.
