Average:

I was not looking for this whatsoever, stumbled across it by a fluke. Excellent value for money. Rare books I would not have known existed. Brilliant!


Quality of the publications is excellent! These are really an enjoyment to read and think about how far the game of billiards has come in the last 150 years. Only issue with this purchase is the time to receive the items. It's understandable because the sellers are located in the UK and the time difference causes the delay in posting a link. Still, you receive the items within a day or so.
