John Gunther LOT OF 9 Behind the Curtain & 8 "Inside" books - Two 1st Editions

Description: CONDITION: Acceptable. This lot of nine books have various publication dates from 1938 - 1961. All books show considerable signs of wear including frayed and/or stained covers, foxing and stains on pages. Some have the original owner's names. One looks like it has smoke damage, another water damage on some pages. Two have dust covers that show wear. One has a plastic book cover. I have not noted any underlining, highlighting or writing in the margins of any of the nine books. Also, I have not noticed any odors. This collection was purchased over several years at many used book stores. Since we have added them to our collection, they have been stored in a smoke-free, climate controlled environment. SEE PHOTOS This lot of nine John Gunther books includes:Behind the Curtain - 1949 - original owner's name erased but still visible Inside Africa - 1955 - dust jacket Inside Asia - 1939, THIRTY-THIRD EDITION - original owner's name on first page - cover has a few bubbles - smoke damage Inside Latin America - 1941 - FIRST EDITION - dust jacket Inside U.S.A. - 1947 Inside Russia Today - 1958 Inside Europe - 1938 - COMPLETELY REVISED EDITION. PRINTED WITH NEW PLATES - personal msg on the first page Inside Europe - 1940 - WAR EDITION - PRINTED FROM NEW PLATES - plastic dust jacket - water damage on edges of several pages Inside Europe Today - 1961 - FIRST EDITIONOnce boxed the weight of this lot will be approximately 20 lbs. and will be shipped USPS Media Rate Combined Shipping:Yes, I will combine shipping. However, I will add a $1/book handling fee. NOTE: Because this listing is already a "lot", the combined shipping is already accounted for and there will not be an extra $1/book added. Handling Time:All my listings say “3 Business Days” for handling. However, 90% of my sales have been shipped the very next day. Ebay regularly sends me messages suggesting I reduce my 3-day handling to increase my sales. I have not changed it because of that 10% of the time when I take short trips and cannot immediately ship. I rather the buyer be surprised and pleased with the quick ship instead of disappointed with a later ship. Send me a message if you are wondering how long it will actually take me to package and ship it out. Seller's Book Ratings – “Like New” vs “Very Good” vs “Good” etc.:I am not a Used Book Dealer. My books are rated for those buyers in mind who simply want a book to read and/or want to add to their personal collection. If the only blemish I see is a remainder mark, a small smudge or anything else I view as insignificant, it will still get a “Like New” rating. I have several books that have a personal message written inside, an embossed stamp, and/or a written date of purchase. I do my best to photograph all of these and anything else I see that may make the book less than perfect. If you require more photos, I will try to accommodate your request. Seller’s Listing Method:My books are organized alphabetically in my home by the Author’s last name. I started listing books from the end of the alphabet and have been moving forward. I do not have an eBay Store. Because of this, eBay only allows me 250 free new listings per month. Once a book reaches 30 days online, eBay automatically re-lists it which counts against my new listing tally. Usually, if a book has not sold within 60 days, I move it offline into my Unsold File. This gives me room for books that have yet to be listed. After I make my way to the letter “A” and all my books have been listed once, I will revisit my Unsold File and start over. If you are seeking a particular author or book, please ask me if I have it. If I do and able, I will list it sooner. According to eBay rules/regulations, I cannot and will not sell to you outside of eBay. Seller's Packaging Technique:Single book orders:Usually, I use Kraft Easy-fold boxes and bubble lined mailing envelopes. This system works very well to protect books. A larger book that will not fit in an Easy-fold will be sent securely In a box. Multi-book orders: My multi-book packaging technique varies (obviously) according to the number and size of the books ordered. Usually, previously used boxes and packaging supplies given to me from family, friends and neighbors are put to use. However, there has been a few occasions when a purchase of both boxes and packing supplies has been needed as orders had depleted my supply. The books you order will be packaged with care to ensure a safe journey to their next home. A variety of packing supplies have been used including packing paper, bubble wrap, Styrofoam, shredded paper, etc. Thank you for browsing!
