Nearly 80 Nihonto And Related Books On Ebay Site (Not Mine)

[student]

Hello All,

 

I hope this is appropriate to post here. I have no connection to the seller, just happened across the listings while browsing. Hopefully this will be of interest to some of you. I've just randomly picked one to link to since the store doesn't seem to have them separated out in a section.

Yes, it's perfectly okay to post this type of eBay auction here, Peter.

 

It would be nice if that store could separate these types of books, as I've found no way to segregate them using eBay's tools.

I just bought one of the books and communicated with the seller.  It turns out that it is John Slough's collection.  Cheers, bob

That's very interesting, I bought John Slough's entire sword library (that he had with him) when he was living here on South Beach. I was not aware that he had additional references and would have expressed an interest had I known...

Yeah, that worked better than my search, Stephen - thanks. I think he's making most of his profit on the shipping!
