Hardcover original Dark Blue l. Condition: Fine. ### The Observer Book of SHIPS - No.15 - 1978### # Describing 8 Plates in Colour, Black and white photo's and numerous line drawings ~#~ The Observer's Books were a series of small, pocket-sized books, published by Frederick Warne & Co in the United Kingdom from 1937 to 2003. They covered a variety of topics, including hobbies, art, history and wildlife. These books aimed to interest the observers, and they have also been popular amongst children. Some of them have become collector's items. For the dedicated collector, this could be a lifetime's work as there are over 800 variations, some of which are now rare. The values of the books can vary from 50 pence to hundreds of pounds. Until 1969, books printed had dust covers. Each one had a unique pattern of squiggly lines at the top, but these were not very especially practical because they were easy to rip and stain. From 1970, the covers received a glossy coating. Books of this type are generally called "Glossies". From the late 1970s, Warne decided to laminate the books cover to the actual books to make them sturdier and more resistant to wear. The first Observer's guide was published in 1937 and was on the subject of British birds. A mint copy with a dust cover is worth hundreds of pounds: also a British wild-flowers book was produced. A mint copy of this book is worth around £220. When the popularity of these was recognized, more titles produced. 'uniform in the series', but during World War II production was limited due to paper and labour shortages. Even so, by 1941 Warne had published the first six Observer's books. ~#~ THIS BOOK: No bumping, no fading, there is no underlining or tick marks that I can see, clean and tidy, still a tight spine. ## INTERNATIONAL BUYERS? Please note, due to the price increase by the British Postal Service, and to be fair to you and me, please contact me for a shipping quote.
