All items listed are in good to excellent condition unless stated otherwise. Many items are one of a kind. Please inquire should you need multiple copies of a publication. Domestic shipments will be made using the “special standard” or book rate.


All items listed are in good to excellent condition unless stated otherwise.

We have developed the following numerical book descriptions to better describe the books in this catalog:
- 1 - An absolutely clean book; in mint condition; book was received directly from the publisher
- 2 - Clean book with no markings, folds, chips, stamps, but may show slight wear
- 3 - Used book which shows slight wear or has one stamping, signature, or other slight markings
- 4 - Used book has more wear, several stamps, marks, signatures, or some underlining
- 5 - An x-library book which may contain library stamps, scars from removal of card pockets, etc.

All of our books will eventually be converted to this new numerical designation system. A classification of - 5 - does not mean that this is a book in poor condition. We do not stock books or poor quality or in bad condition. Some of our x-library books appear to have never been checked out. Books with tears, water damage, etc. are almost never stocked by this MS Book and Mineral Company. A book with the classification of - 4 - has a major redeeming feature to find its way into this catalog. This numbering system is designed to give you a more complete, fast, but accurate, description of our books.
Abbreviations:
cl = cloth (regular hardback)
cl[2] = cloth (fine hardback version)
