A phenomenal and unbelievably wide-ranging, ready-made library of books about non-sports cards is presented. This voluminous selection of descriptive tomes and price guides covers a full range of cartophilic activity and past research (with emphasis on tobacco and gum issues), and represents a wealth of informative and entertaining reading material. Its list addresses a mind-boggling number of topics; subject matter spans from the second half of the 19th Century to modern times. The books – many of which have become extremely scarce – are circulated to the degree brought about by standard enjoyment in reading (generally VG to EX or better, with older volumes showing higher degrees of wear), and the majority are hardcover editions.
