I want to clarify that I am not making any money on these 3 items. All funds will be collected by me, and sent to Bill Helmer. Prices do not include insured shipping, and I can quote you fast Priority Mail, or slower Media Mail. If you are a Texas resident, I will have to collect 8.25% Texas state sales tax.
The 3 items are as follows:
Item #1: "The Thompson Submachine Gun," by Roger Cox, with dustcover. Very good condition. The dustcover has a small tear in the upper left hand corner, and a small piece missing at the bottom of the Dillinger wanted poster in the lower right hand corner. This book has a Roger Cox signature, and 2 Helmer signatures. Books signed by Roger Cox are hard to find. Helmer got this book from Cox when it came out in 1982. Bill Helmer wrote the introduction to this book, and signed below his name at the end of the introduction, and also marked the page that has the Roger Cox signature with "From the library of William J. Helmer." (The name is signed)
The price for this item is $700.
Here is a picture of the book:

Here is a picture of Bill Helmer and me with some books, including the one listed above. Incidentally, I found out he did not have a first edition of his own "Roar" book, so I gave him one of mine, and it is pictured. He then gave me a signed copy of his "Public Enemies" book, which I did not have yet.

Item #2: Reproduction 1929 Catalog by Ray Riling Arms Books Co. These were individually serial numbered from 1 to 500, and this one is number 063. This one has a lot of wrinkles in it, and is stamped on the lower back with Helmer's name and former Chicago address. Also written in pencil, above the TSMG picture on the front cover, Helmer wrote "Poor reprint." This could easily be erased, but it adds character, in my opinion. Originally, these came with a loose leaf insert for the 1928 Model TSMG, but this one does not have that loose leaf page included.
The price for this item is $40.
Item #3: "Notes on Auto-Ordnance," by James Bannan and Tracie Hill, 1989. This belongs to Helmer, but is not marked in any way. It has seen a lot of use, including a page that is very wrinkled.
The price for this item is $150.
Here is a picture of the previous 2 items together:

The following items belong to me, and I am selling them because they are duplicates. Bill signed them all for me in blue ink next to his printed name on the inside title page. This is a good chance to pick up a signed edition of his "Roar" book, and his Baby Face Nelson book that he did with Steven Nickel.
Shipping and tax must be added for these items as described above.
Prices:
MacMillan "Roar" Book, Second printing, 1970: $40
Gun Room Press "Roar" Book, $35
Baby Face Nelson Book, 2002, By Cumberland Press, $25
These books have Brodart library quality dustcover protectors placed on them.
