It is one of the largest collections of White Mountains & AMC material that we have ever seen, in private hands that is. If you need or want anything having to do with this field it is likely that we have it or can get it as we know boast the largest collection of like material (Books, Maps, Paper, Stereo's & CDV's, etc...) for sale in the world.
