The listing, Antique 1949 "World's Greatest Literature" Set has ended.
Antique 1949 "World's Greatest Literature" set.
I have no idea of the value due to not really being able to find them online in a complete set like I have, and because the publishing company is no longer in business. The only set I could find wasn't from the same publishing company (reprinting the edition we have) was on Amazon and didn't even include all the books, (there is a screen shot of the Amazon page in the photos).
Series of books from Book Production Industries, Inc. Copyright dated MCMXLIX (1949).
Set it titled World's Greatest Literature
Books included in set are:
The Last of the Mohicans
A Tale of Two Cities
The Sketch Book
Treasure Island
Best Loved Poems (Longfellow)
Ivanhoe
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
The Three Musketeers
We usually do free shipping, but hardback books are heavy and these have to be carefully wrapped individually and weather-proofed so they don't become damaged, sorry about that! We will use a large flat rate box to ship them in if we can fit them all in there after they are wrapped, which is $17.45 plus tax. I will update the auction later after they are wrapped to let you all know the exact cost. We never charge over, just the actual cost of shipping.
I will do free shipping with GIN, and only with GIN. Sorry, that would be the only way I could make up for the cost of shipping.
Good luck and happy bidding! And if you have any questions or insight, let us know in the comments section! :)
