Hi folks, 

Over the years of my life I have amassed a large collection of books on 
numerous favorite subjects. In an effort to continue writing the series, 'The 
Meteorite Chronicles' I will be attempting to sell many of the books from this 
collection. The plan for now is to spend one week each month listing books on 
EBay and the other remaining three weeks writing. There are many books on each 
of these subjects: Meteoritics, Paleontology, Egyptology, Archaeology, Art 
History, Native Peoples and Artifacts of the Pacific Northwest, Astronomy, 
Travel, Classic Literature, Art and Art History.  There are also a number of 
signed first editions from scientists and also from classic authors like T.S. 
Elliot, Tolkien and Samuel Clemens.  When I chose to turn my meteorite 
collecting hobby into a business many years ago I also decided that it was 
important to me to put it all out there on the table and not hold back the best 
for myself. But, the collector in me turned to other collectibles in 
substitution
  of this denial. This collection of antiquarian and rare books is a reflection 
of that substitution. If the book collection thins out more rapidly than 
expected then I will turn on the art collection. 

Listed on EBay at this time are a number of books on Meteoritics and also 
Paleontology and just for fun I listed a signed Dr. Seuss and a book signed by 
T.S. Eliott.

If you have interest, the EBay I.D. is etmeteorites. Please file me as a 
favorite vendor and you can see additional listings in future days. There are 
easily more than 10,000 books and a number of them are from the 1600's to 
1800's. Just last night listed a wonderful book translated from Latin to 
English in 1694, a large antiquarian book on early sciences which includes a 
chapter on meteors, very cool beans!


My sincerest thanks to everyone who bought the new book, EarthUnder at the 
Tucson show. By the time I got home last week I had sold out of both the 
hardbound and paperback editions. If you buy a copy from your local book store 
or on Amazon, Barnes and Noble or Inkwater Press, drop me a line if you wish 
and I will gladly mail you a signed bookplate.  Book two; SkyThunder will be 
out soon. 

Thank you all more than words can say for your support.  I am proud to be a 
part of this community.


Regards,

E.T.
