In addition to the lists shown as in process, there are approximately 45-50 additional lists that will ultimately be available
All lists are fresh format and fully – as possible – researched and up to date. These are NOT COPIES OR SCANS of existing lists that have been circulating around the hobby for the past 40+ years – without any effort to update or correct. The lists are all as current, and updated, as is possible.
All books are offered in a hard cover binder. Number of pages are indicated; all are printed double sided.
Shipping – USING USPS “MEDIA MAIL” – COST OF WHICH IS INCLUDED IN THE LISTED PRICE – WITHIN THE US. CONTACT ME IF YOU WANT A QUOTE FOR OTHER MEANS. USPS PRIORITY MAIL FLAT RATE BOX IS AVAILABLE @ $9.50/box. These boxes will hold 2- 4 books.
Shipping Overseas – I have found the most economical means is via USPS “M” Bag. Write for details/ quotes. Remember, paper IS HEAVY !! Minimum weight is 5kg (11 lbs)
I make every attempt to ship within within 2 weeks; it may take a little longer should I be out of a book (usually 3-4 additional days)

eMail address for communication –
If you wish to pay with paypal, you may use the “hotmail” address AS LISTED ABOVE, Also, payment within the US – I accept any means of negotiable paper. Outside the US – Paypal or Western Union is the only practical means. Otherwise, the bank charges for exchanges are ridiculous.
I do not keep a mailing list, per se, but if you would like to get regular updates, let me know. I currently have 58 data books in process or available – with nearly as many still to compile.
