HUGE SALE

From the Walter Black Series

This is a series of 75 reprints of Zane Grey titles, including one biography. The last 15 of these titles are fairly difficult to find, but we have a number of them in stock. I have included the numbers on the last 15 along with the titles. The books are off white cloth with spine labels in gilt, red and blue.We are in the process of listing all of we have of this series on this page. They are in alphabetical order to find easily. Unless otherwise specified, books in this section are published by Walter J. Black, Inc., and do not have the original glassine dust jackets. All the books look pretty much like the biography, below, on the outside. The lettering is in gilt on the spine.
All books, with the possible exception of Camp Robber, are reprints.

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.

We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail (barbsbooks@sbcglobal.net), since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway. We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that.
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
