Description: The Gun Collector's Handbook of Values by Charles Edward Chapel, First Lieutenant, U.S. Marine Corps, Retired.... Sixth Completely Revised Edition...1964-1965 Values.."Here the reader will find the whole fascinating story of the development of small arms, ranging from the hand cannon of the 14th Century to the diminutive, pearl-mounted confections which moder gunsmithing has made available for the handbag of the modern miss.Chapels book answers hundreds of questions for the beginner, the advanced collector, the student of firearms history and the average man in the street who has a love for things mechanical, but who has no patience with dull, uninteresting technical." John G. Mock This book is in very good condition. The dust jacket is torn at the top and bottom of the spine and at the right top corner. The book itself is in very good condition, just slight bends at the top and bottom of spine and at the corners from shelf wear. The 398 pages, including the index, has clear text and illustrations. Over all condition is very good+ Seventh Revised Edition .."All values have been individually adjusted to reflect the market through the years 1967-1968. The salable quantity of genuine antique farearms decreases constantly. The demand for antique firearms increases as the population increases, hence values increase steadily, regardless of such variables as the purchasing power of the dollar."This book describes about three thousand American and foreign firearms, both ancient and semi-modern, and assigns values for these pieces in good and fine condition according to the author's definitions of these terms, which coincide in this edition with the condition standards of the National Rifle Association of America." This hardbound book is in very good condition. Slight bends at top and bottom of spine and corners due to shelf-wear. Overall condition is very good+
