I picked up a complete set of Guthrie's Texas Forgotten Ports First Edition '88, 93, 95

These are a readers set. They all have covers intact. They show their age with exterior yellowing, but no missing torn or bent pages. No markings or writing. Vol 1's dust cover has a small 1/4" tear in it.

This is a difficult set to find complete. I looked for some time to find Vol 3 for my shelf.

I would prefer this be a hand delivered item and I am willing to deliver to your local coffee shop in the greater Houston area. Might even be willing to go further if I have time and there is something interesting to explore near your coffee shop.

I would like to get $115 OBO for the set. I am not willing to sell them individually.

For anyone interested in the history of the Texas Gulf area, this is an excellent set.   Both Seldom and I recommend it.   (BTW, I'm STILL looking for vol 3....but since I'm currently in Arizona, I'll wait rather than buy duplicates of the two books I already have  Smiley )

As BA said highly recommend and a good price to boot. Vol 3 seem to be the hard one to come

BA I will keep my eye out for another vol 3. Thanks for your replies. I check every shop I drive by for Guthrie, Block, and Bowman. I paid to much for this set, but it is so hard to find all three of them together I couldn't pass them up.

Thank you. I don't think he is on this board. I will be going to look at a collection of Texas in a few weeks. I hope to find some good books.

Very good price.....Too bad it isn't volume 2 (When I was going through my library, I discovered I had volumes 1 and 3, but not 2  Sad )

Well heck! I thought I had ya hooked up!

I have a paperback vol 1 that I would be willing to part with if ya hear anyone looking. The shelves need a cleaning and I keep finding duplicates that I have picked up. I try to make a stop at a different Half Priced Books at least once a month.
