Books for Charity Appeal

[John Young]

Hi
I have kindly been donated some old fishing books and with the help of the donor managed to get some signed.
All money raised will go to the Young Onclogy Unit at The Christie where my colleagues son is being treated.
Our intention is to offer the books here first then list them on eBay if a reasonable amount is not reached.
the first book open to offers as I do not have a clue what it is worth is

The Fighting Barbel By Peter Wheat signed and accompanied with a letter
The book also has the donors name at the rear.

 

[Derek Funcks]

Opening bid, £30.00

Good luck John.

 

[John Young]

Thanks for starting it off. My colleague's son Aaron who is 19 will be told tomorrow if they will continue with his treatment he has been battling for almost 2 years now.

I think the book might be worth a bit more
