Louis L'Amour Collection Leatherette Set 120 FIRST 1ST EDITION Good Con Sackett

  

Louis L'Amour Collection Leatherette Complete Regular Set. This lot is 120 different books from the Louis L'Amour Collection in the leatherette binding.

119 of these books are FIRST EDITION/FIRST PRINTING. "Sackett" is a 1st Edition/2nd Printing.

If you have a Sackett 1st/1st I would gladly pay a premium for it! The early books in the subscription run are very hard to find in 1st/1st, but this set has them except for Sackett. This set is in GOOD USED condition.

These books have been read and will have minor shelf wear, writing, sticker, dings, and fading. This special collection was only available by subscription and took over 10 years to collect as the books were issued every 5-6 weeks.

THESE BOOKS ARE NOT AVAILABLE IN STORES AND THE LAST 10 BOOKS ARE AS VALUABLE AS THE REST OF THE SET. Those sales that are offering 80 or 90 or 100 books are missing the most valuable editions. See list below for all the titles.

Constructed out of hardcovers and brown faux leather/leatherette, these books are 9" tall by 6" wide. They also contain detail maps of the area covered in the setting of the books. L'Amour always set his stories in genuine locations, such as the Four Corners area of Colorado or the Blue Ridge mountains of Carolina. This set would be a great gift to upgrade your loved one's paperback collection! Sackett Series with 18 books including The Sackett Companion.
