Along with the complete set of Crown Jewels of the Wire Magazines I am currently offering for sale (https://www.insulators.info/pictures/?id=560287317 ) I am also offering for sale a complete set of Cross Arms Magazines including the Subscriber's Directory published in 1974. The first issue was published in February 1972 and the last issue in July 1975.

These are a must have for the serious collector of insulator books and are extremely difficult to find in a complete set. In fact, only six listings have appeared on ICON for sale and all were small numbers, never a complete set.

These magazines featured many articles on new finds, shows, collectors and their collections, sales lists, drawings, photos, etc. Many new finds were documented (e.g., Miller's Twin Pin) and I found a show report on the second Mid-Ohio show back in 1972.

I found some ink marks in one copy but have not looked at each one to see how extensive markings may be. The exterior condition is very good to like new.

This is a very rare opportunity that may not come along again for a long while.

$ 100.00 ppd. to US addresses.
