vicrider 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2017 I know this wasn't on your mind but you could sell those on different sites...not this one any more since you told what you paid...for $10 to $15 a book, maybe more if condition is good and you check on Amazon and see what used prices are at for them or similar. A very nice find and I have just bought a package deal that included 4 books, Tying Dry Flies - Revised Edition...Randall Kaufmann & Illustrated by Mike Stidham Fly Patterns of Umpqua Feather Merchants...Randall Kaufmann...The World's 1,100 Best Flies Fly Tying with A.K. ...A.K. Best...Patterns and Problem Solving with New Materials and Techniques Guide to Fly Tying...Dick Talleur...Autographed by author The books are all hardcover in great shape and should give me insights into anything I want to tie. Of particular interest to me right now are sections in a couple of books on Steelhead Flies. I plan to make these books my desktop books. Now just try to figure out how to make room. The other thing I'd like in my tie area is a computer but again, how to fit it in to an already overcrowded mess. I did a package deal on those books and other items the main of which I've already fallen in love with in just a couple of days and that a Renzetti Presentation Vise. I have the traveler but the big boy is so much smoother and easier to use and holds hooks so much better it will be the last vise I look for (I think).
