If either of the last two books deal with nonoperatic classical records,I would want to buy them. I have sold some old opera programs on eBay,from the 1950s,that I found in boxes of junk at a flea market a few years ago.Sometimes these can go for decent money. This is a pity,obviously there are people who can use them.There are any number of private,or small press discographic books on conductors,violinists,pianists,etc,from the 70s and 80s,I would love to find.
