Up for sale is a big German book covering combination weapons of the 15th - 19th centuries (Kombinationswaffen des 15.-19. Jahrhunderts). This is a comprehensive source on these weapons, and happens to be the only source devoted to this topic as far as I know. It's 308 pages long and is chock-full of high quality pictures, many in color. Photographic plates take up pages 53-124, and 145-204. Pages 207-296 form a catalogue of the items with stats, B&W pictures, and descriptions. Over 2/3 of the book's pages contain pictures. All the text is in German, but is easily translatable with online translators. This is huge source of "eye-candy" on these unique weapons.

The book is in really nice shape, with very minor shelf wear to the DJ (no tears or rips or chunks missing, only a few minor wrinkles around the edges). The linen-bound hardback book is in great shape. It's a fairly rare title that often goes for $75-$150+.

Asking $68 + shipping. Money Order accepted, PayPal preferred (please add 3%). I currently have another large German reference book for sale. Shipping both together will be a savings. :)
