Illinois History Books and Periodical Collection
by Wesley Johnston
In 1986, I ended my Illinois historical and genealogical research business in Springfield, when I moved to California. It is clear that I am not going to resume my research business. So I am selling off my extensive collection of Illinois history books and periodicals. My collection of Illinois County Histories has already been sold. Now I am offering the following historic books and periodicals for sale.
I will be posting prices as I figure them out. In the meantime, please contact me via e-mail at wwjohnston@aol.com for information. Offers for the entire collection will be given precedence. However offers for individual purchases of one or more parts of the collection are also invited.
