INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: PAYPAL ONLY ( NO INTERNATIONAL ECHECKS PLEASE) ~ DUE WITH IN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE! NEVER USED WWI ORIGNIAL #217 US ARMY 1917 FIELD MESSAGE BOOK! Hard to find piece of WWI memorabilia in this condition! I would call it almost mint, but it does show evidence of having been "in the field" with a bit of dinge...a bit of a bend to the corners and on at the cover back. Still and all, a totally unused 1917 #217 US Army Signal Corp Message Book with pristine pages and the original carbon paper still in excellent, unused condition! We have shown you many views of the item within the listing...as you can see it contains code and signal information quite clearly. Measures in at 6 & 1/2" x 4 & 3/4" ...the name of the owner on the interior front cover... Sgt. G.E.A. ~ Co. B ~ 351 Inf. is noted....nothing more. Super piece for any collection! Ask questions if you have them...will be carefully packed and shipped promptly upon confirmation of your payment . All Bidders : You must have a Paypal account to participate in our auctions. However, USA bidders may still use any of the payment options mentioned below . International Bidders : Your payment is due within 48 hours of auction close via Paypal only . NO ECHECKS PLEASE for international payments! Payment by any other method will be considered non-payment. Our apologies, but our banks are charging for clearing international money orders and international echecks through Paypal often take two weeks or more to clear. Also, unfortunately, with some buyers taking advantage of the system, we can no longer ship International First Class as it does not provide tracking ability for packages. USA Bidders : Your payment is due within 7 days from auction close via Paypal, or personal check/money order. No Cows, No Chickens...please use the checkout system with ebay to advise us of your payment intention at the close of the auction. Insurance is recommended , and not included in the shipping calculator quote. Please do not anticipate that we will "make good" any item damaged by the USPS or UPS systems due to mishandling. If you do obtain insurance, and have a claim, we will provide you with the proper paperwork, but you must proceed from your end with the claim. You may be asked to provide the original box and contents to the USPS or UPS prior to their processing the claim. Failure to do so will nullify their requirement to reimburse you for your loss. Additional Packaging Requests : We have received a few requests to " double box " our items. While we take great care to pack our items normally, we do not generally double box . To do so adds to the weight and expense for shipping. Please be aware that if you make this request, you must do so prior to paying as your invoice must be adjusted to accommodate the additional shipping weight. Do not wait until paying to include a "note" with your payment, as we may then be unable to comply with your request. Please note : We care about your item! We pack carefully, as if it will be our own, taking great care. For this, we incur substantial packing costs associated with proper delivery to you. As much as we so appreciate our clients, new and old, please do not bid and buy from us if you intend to leave negative ratings in feedback for the costs of shipping carefully to you. Our handling ($2.00 - $3.00) per item does not cover our complete annual average packing costs, which is included in the shipping costs quoted in the shipping calculator below.
