Rifle scabbard is sold (thanks Steve!)

Reasonable offers welcome on other items.

Also have "The Shotgun Book" by Jack O'Connor.  Good condition, w/ dust jacket.  $35.  These O'Connor classics are entertaining to read, and full of common-sense advice based on shooting experience that is mostly not available anymore (but still useful). They are nice to have on the bookshelf next to the shoulder mounts.

Are those Game in the Desert books the original or revised edition?

These are reprints, not sure of each copyright.  My personal copy is from Amwell Press, 1977, third printing, 1985.

I've got a revised edition myself. I bought one of Oconnors books and when I opened it up, there was a letter from Connor to another OutdoorLife writer named Ben East. How it got in the book I have no clue.

That is a very cool find!  Looks like an original.  Probably sent the carbon copy, or else forgot to send it at all.  He would have been 58 yrs. old, in his writing prime, though maybe not his most energetic hunting years.  Not a big deal, as by then, he was well enough established that Outdoor Life was paying for him to go to Iran, Africa, India, the Yukon, the NWT, you name it, all first class and amenities.  

I have been to the JOC Hunting Heritage and Education Center in Lewiston, and walked by his house (several times).  Lots of character and history there.  The info and advice in his books is still useful these many years later.  He was gifted as a writer, but he also worked at it.

I see you are in Chandler, but the Special Collections room at the UA library has originals of many of his books.  That's where I read "Boomtown" and "Conquest" - both extremely rare and valuable books.

Thanks for posting!
