EBAY 6642 AS 2/7/2012
Cities and Civilisations, published by The Folio Society. Hardcover book presented in a slipcase. This book is brand new and still in the factory shrink wrap. The plastic wrap has come apart at some of the seams and has a couple of tears, and the slipcase has some very light wear at the corners. 9-1/4" x 12".
Please check back often - We are listing items as quickly as possible. We are a nationally recognized charity. We describe items as best we can - we would rather receive a lower price by pointing out every flaw than incorrectly describe an item just to obtain a higher selling price.

Books for America distributes books and more to organizations in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States serving needy communities and people. Recipients of donated books and other items include hospitals, inner-city schools, assisted living communities for seniors, adult literacy programs, veterans’ hospitals, youth centers, women's shelters, prisons, hospices, and more.

This item may be picked up at our used bookstore at 1417 22nd Street, NW in Washington, DC or at our warehouse location in Fairfax, Virginia. Email/message us to arrange a time - we have to bring the item from our warehouse if you want to pick it up downtown. If you pick up from the store downtown, you can use your credit card or cash, you do not have to pay online. If you pick up from the warehouse location you must still pay online or over the phone.
Donate books, DVDs, CDs, Laptops, Phones, and more!
We obtain books and more through donation drives in communities like yours. We occasionally obtain items that would be of more value to collectors and others than to our recipients, and sometimes simply take a small quantity of donated items and sell them on eBay - proceeds from this sale is what fund’s our efforts.
