Default Recent Discovery - Old Aircraft Production Books

Hi all,

I am preparing for my move to Adelaide and noticed some old books living in my attic in a sealed box. Can someone please tell me if they are worth anything? The books are all paperbacks and in very good condition. Most have typewriter like printing and old price labels on them including #7 (see below) which has '5/3' written in pencil on the cover. Some also have pen amendments inside, obviously the work of a keen spotter. The books are;
1. Dehavilland Canada - Buffalo Dash 7, Twin Otter and Saunders ST-27 (Author: F.J.Blatherwick). It dates at June 1978 and has 44 pages with history, specifications and a complete listing.
2. The First 500 (A production history of the Britten-Norman Islander, Trilander and Defender) by BN Historians. It dates at 1974 and has 70 pages.
3. Vickers Turbine Transports by D.A. Dorman and A.B. Eastwood. It dates 1974 and has 112 pages.
4. Vickers Viscount 800 (Airlines and Airliners No.14) by Paul St. John Turner. It contains a complete production list and has 35 pages and dates at 1975.
5. Lockheed Hercules Production List 1954 - 1979 (Third Revised Edition) by Lars Olausson. It has 56 pages.
6. Airliner Production List by Nigel Milton Tompkins. It contains all of the Jet and Turboprop Airliners over 22,000lb AUW (except Russian stuff). It dates at 1978 and has 362 pages.
7. American Aircraft of World War 2 by K.G. Munson. It dates September 1961 and has 64 pages.
8. Nord 262 and Fregate (Airlines and Airliners No. 5) produced by B. Tompkins. It dates 1972 and has 24 pages.
9. Boeing Jet Airliners Production List (707, 720, 727, 737, 747 and USAF Variants) by S.R. Lynn. It has 151 pages.
10. The De Havilland/Hawker Siddeley 125 by LAAS International. It contains the history and production list of the HS.125 and has 32 pages. It dates May 1974.
11. The HP137 Jetstream - A production history by the Central Scotland Aviation Group. It has 54 pages and dates at March 1977.
Let me know if you are interested. I can take photos of the covers if interested.

Regards
Ray
