Collecting Books and Magazines

G'day from the glorious Blue Mountains region of New South Wales, Australia.
It really is possible to have too much of a good thing. I've more than enough reading material to keep me occupied for the next hundred years! What I'd REALLY like to collect in my declining years are the joys of my childhood, HORNBY clockwork and TRI-ANG electric trains and MECCANO metal construction kits! See below for 2006 updated information.

Interests - Books
Most book collectors will realise from my username that the works of Frank Richards, real name Charles Hamilton, creator of 'Billy Bunter', used to be my number one collecting interest. British and Australian children's books, annuals, pocket libraries and story papers, Observer's, Ladybird and simlar size books, railway books and magazines, TV tie-ins, movie annuals and related reference books can also be found amid the thousands of books and magazines with which I share my life. Most of my time is spent working on the Blue Mountains 'Collecting Books and Magazines' website which I co-edit, or else indexing story papers for Steve Holland's 'History of Children's Literature'. If you have any questions on juvenile literature, I'm always happy to answer questions, or pass you onto somebody else who may be able to assist. In fact I'll help put a value on children's books you want to sell on eBay, within reason.

Interests - Australian Bilda-brix and Tri-ang Trains
If you're looking for information or just have a nostalgic interest in these two icons, see my BILDA-BRIX and TRI-ANG TRAINS pages on the CB&M site.

The Task Ahead!
I need space. It's as simple as that, but it's a long, hard road selling books unless they're 'out of the ordinary'. So I'll be having a garage sale, or several, some time in the not too distant future. If you go to my web site, COLLECTING BOOKS and MAGAZINES, you can join our CB&M Yahoo group to be kept up to date on this and bookish events around Australia.
