    I'm very happy with these hard-to-find items. They were exactly as described, were packaged with care, shipped quickly, and listed at an eminently fair price considering their rarity. The seller was even kind enough to send a little note describing the history of the items and how she acquired them, along with a couple extra items that were in line with the ones I purchased. It was an honor to meet and do business!

    Not only was this book speedily delivered and exactly as advertised, but it came with a handwritten note about its origins. The package was carefully packed by hand and included a few other items. It was akin to a care package. I am more than satisfied. This was the best Ebay purchase I've ever made for all those reasons and more.

    Thanks again for your kind words and your earlier note. We are still unboxing books and just found "The Hidden Heritage" a paperback by John Howard Lawson. If you don't already have it, I would love to send it to you (for free). Also, we uncovered an old walking tour map of Greenwich Village, maybe from the 60s. I think my husband wants to keep it, but wanted you to know of its existence. Let me know about the L book. A.

    I'm thrilled with this purchase! Despite the program being 50 years old, it's in excellent condition. I received it quickly, and was packaged nicely. It was as described, and the seller enclosed a nice personal message, explaining it's history, and offering a refund if not satisfied. I'm very satisfied, and would recommend this seller to everyone!
