Lloyd White Willys MB Books, 5 Volume Set.

Post by Dan S » Thu Jun 15, 2017 2:58 pm

I've got a complete 5 volume set of "The Evolution of the Willys-Overland MB Jeep" by Lloyd White.
This set is in new condition. This set has never been used or handled so it is really 100% new.

I will sell the set complete or individual volumes in case you have not completed your set.

Asking $440 for the 5 volume set and I will pay the shipping to USA address is you buy the 5 volume set.
I'll price individual copies at request.

You might want to share this info with the better half!
I will ship internationally.

Send me a PM and I will reply ASAP.

Thanks,
Dan

Hardbound?
Lloyd made a few of his MB series books as hardbound ones, but I think it was about a dozen or less of them (he told me the details the last time I was at his place but I don't recall them now).
I think the asking price is fair, as Lloyd didn't have a massive print run and I can't imagine he'll re-print them. I have all 5 of them and it's nothing short of amazing.*
The price for a full set will only go up in value over time. I wish I could have afforded to buy another set, seal them up and wait a few years before selling them at what will certainly be a much higher value after some time has passed.

*yes, I did the cartoon drawings for the chapters, but I'd have bought the books even if I'd had nothing to do with them at all.

Does anyone have a set available? I would love to get them for my husband who believes has an original hard top on a mb out of Alaska.

For you guys in the EU check with Nicolas at Jeepest, he should still have copies of all 5 volumes for sale for sale.

If you are in the US, he will ship to you but you will have to pay more for shipping if you want a volume that Dan does not have.

Egon,

Last time I checked was late last year. I have a friend going to see him next weekend, I'll make sure he asks and posts the answer.
