Description
This is a fine softcover copy of this rare two volume set with no wear at all. Completely clean inside and out. These are sale catalogs for the historic firearms auctions held at Christie's London on November 9, 2000 and October 25, 2001. Sale codes are: FRISK-8934 and CONKERS-6542. W. Keith Neal (1905-1990) began collecting antique and often historically significant firearms in his twenties. By the 1960's his collection numbered some 2000 items and was considered to be the finest collection in private hands. There was one earlier sale at Christie's in 1995. With these two final sales the W. Keith Neal Collection has been completely dispersed. 279 lots in the first sale and 274 lots in the second sale. All illustrated in color, most with extensive entries. 11" high X 8" wide, 356 & 359 pages. A beautiful unused set. Large heavy books, foreign shipping will be extra. This set will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking.
