Well I am now up to 8 books from 1915 - 1940 on sign painting, painting on glass and much more. Todays find I have been watching for 3 days and then today realized what it was. I contacted the owner and he said the book was complete but just in a little disarray binding wise. I was looking at the net and seeing later versions for between $150 - $450, I paid $55 for this and I am pretty sure that the information in this book is worth well over $55 and maybe soon I wont have so many questions and will have a better understanding.
Below is a link to the site that I won today on ebay, check out the pics of the book and tell me if I got a good deal
