Item description from seller

68pp, illustrations, paper covers. In very good order, with a vertical crease. The in-house magazine for Carter Paterson, the parcels and delivery company, which was founded in the 1860s and was bought by the four railway companies (GWR, LNER, LMS and Southern) in the 1930s. On nationalisation at the end of 1947 it became part of British Road Services. Surprisingly rare, the only example we have ever seen. UK shipping for this item will be lower than the ABE default rate.

Store description

A member of the Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association (PBFA), I have been a nearly full time bookseller since the mid 2000s working from home in Bristol. I concentrate on books on transport (mainly railways), industrial history, maritime, topography, the Beatles & other groups from the 1960s and interesting ephemera. I particularly specialise in official publicity of the British railway companies. I sell on ABE, on eBay under the moniker 'mr.publicity' and at book and transport collectors' fairs. I keep a modest stock of quality material which is constantly changing - I spend a good deal of my time travelling around the UK seeking out and acquiring new stock. …
