Books up for sale: Rolling Bones and the Book of GOW Collector's Edition

Hello everyone,

Antonio from Italy here. I’m NEW (but 42 years young!) to this forum but not to the Hot Rods world.
Yeah, I know this is my first post here, but I have solid references all over the net (just ask me, can provide proof and you can ask about me to many people in many groups - on Facebook or other forums) since I'm a car books collector since ages.

Well, as reported in the header of this thread, I have some rare books up for sale that may result interesting for someone.

Those 2 books are the famous “Rolling Bones” and its sequel “ Book of Gow”.
Both are the super limited run of only 49 exemplars (mines have the same matching number, 44), they came with a steel bare metal hand painted slipcases, by personal request, so basically no other may have one similar to these. Both autographed and both unique.
When the first book came out I was lucky enough to secure a slot for this special edition. A friend of mine that live in Idaho helped me to get this. Then when the Book of Gow was announced, I received an offer for the same special edition (and the same matching number) to complete the set.
Please see pics attached below. I think that those 2 are work of art.
Both books are in NEW perfect conditions, barely opened since I also own both in standard format - a standard (consultation) copy was included too with the collector's edition, so I'll ship them too.

Price request is USD 1600 ($800 each) plus shipping, but I can consider also offers, just keep in mind that each books had the same cost of USD 800 back in the days, so I think my request is very fair, even considering that those are not hard to find items but real impossible to find item now!
If interested, I also own the books stand - a nice smoking skeleton with open arms that may keep the books into his hands (quite a biblical scene!), but still need to take pics of it. Anyway can send them privately as soon as I shot them.

About shipping: I'm quite skilled at doing packages and I shipped all over the world - and i really mean ALL over, so that's not a major problem to me. I use UPS or DHL, tracked, fast and ensured couriers, that can guarantee to both of us (you as a buyer and me as a seller) a nice and secure experience. Shipping price may vary from your destination, so just ask me and I'll be more than happy to check with you - and if you have a preference with a specific courier, just tell me and we can use your preferred one.
That's it, for any enquire, more photos, curiosities or just a chat, feel free to contact me without any problem.
