They are dated 1952-1961, 1956-1963, 1957-1964, 1958-65 and 1959-66. They are of no use to me so I am considering listing them on e bay. any suggestions on how much I should ask for each of them would be gratefully received.

I would love to have a copy of the VINCENT listing for 1955. I am having trouble with registration date with the DVLA here in the UK. It would help me greatly if you could post the appropriate page.Vincentknighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00290073370940232662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5906028895657817353.post-80912292934176689742010-09-25T01:09:11.111+10:002010-09-25T01:09:11.111+10:00I am lucky enough to have two 1950s editions of Gl...I am lucky enough to have two 1950s editions of Glass's Car Check Book. They cover all British cars and imports from 1933 through the mid-1950s. Since I study the wartime and early-postwar periods, for all makes of cars around the world, I find these invaluable. You're right about the rarity of these small gems.Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17743215224486456269noreply@blogger.com
