Any one out there have a copy of the following items you might be willing to sell?

2. National Geographic Magazine For Collectors 1888 - 2000 (by Don Smith)

3. Collectors Guide To The Nat. Geo. Magazine 1971 3RD Edition Limited leather cover edition (Edwin Buxbaum)

I can be reached at - swsilverithecollector@yahoo.com

#3 is actually the 3rd edition NOT 4th.

His first work @ 1935 was considered a pamphlet, not a guide, and was titled: "Collecting National Geographic Magazines."

first edition of the "Guide" was @ 1956

second was @ 1962

third was @ 1971

My mistake. I meant to type 3rd edition but was thinking of something else. Thanks for pointing it out. I will correct it.

Hi Scott

I very may well.  Please allow me a day or so to get back to you on this subject.

Thanks,

Dave

PS I have a huge near complete collection in need of liquidation so if there is anything else you are looking for, please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Scott

I am sorry to say I have not yet located the volumes you want.  I will check again on Wednesday.

Thank you Scott

Hi Scott

I am in possession of A 1971 Buxbaum.  What makes me possibly think it is not what you are looking for is that the book I have is bound in blue cloth with what appears to be a gilt lettered burgundy leather tag.  It also is in a slipcase...

The book I have is in near perfect condition and signed by the author.  If you are interested, please let me know thanks!

Thanks for trying, but I have the regular 1971 in slipcase. The one I want is the leather presentation copy. 1 of 50 printed. Thanks again.

Scott
