I need to know:
How many books there are: we (my husband does some collections) will (within reason!) travel to pick up larger collections. It's usually more economic to post smaller collections. If you do this, I will of course re-imburse your postage, as long as this is reasonable.
Examples of specific titles you have for sale: a list of the books you have for sale is helpful, with their condition. If the collection is very large, a representative selection of titles would help. In most cases I only buy books in very good condition (though obviously if the book is rare I do make an exception.)
If we view your collection and make an offer that you accept, we will pay you and take the books away straight away.

Magazines and Annuals I’m looking to buy Pony Magazine from the 1940s onwards, so please get in touch if you have some of these. I’m also interested in Light Horse from the 1960s, Pony Magazine Annual and Pony Club Annual (or book), and Ponies of Britain magazines.
Equine ephemera A rather glam title for other material which might contain stories: for example the booklets Moss Bross gave away to customers in the 1930s.
