Scarce book FS by A. Heerding, Philips lamp history
« on: May 04, 2008, 09:09:03 am »
FOR SALE:

I've found myself with two copies of the excellent book titled ?THE HISTORY OF N.V. PHILIPS? GLOEILAMPENFABRIEKEN, The Origin of the Dutch Incandescent Lamp Industry? written by A. Heerding and published in 1986.  This book is new condition with original dust jacket.  The book is a very in depth look into the beginning of the electric lighting industry in Europe, 1880-1890, and contains 343 pages which are fully indexed.  The book is in English and has long been out of print and it?s a very difficult book to locate.  The book is heavily illustrated with photos and illustrations and is an excellent informational resource for anyone interested in early light bulbs and associated lighting history.  Prices for this title range from $100-$250 on the used book market.  Asking just $30 plus shipping cost.  Pay Pal accepted.  Contact me if interested.
