Here's a 2-piece Hudson automobile literature package consisting af a 1949 full-line fold-out sales brochure and a 1949 Mechanical Procedure manual (Shop Manual) for the 500 Series. Neither is pristine.

The sales brochure is clean and bright, but has creases and dog-ears, along with some rubs on the front.

The shop manual's thin cover is brittle and has pieces broken off. The pages are yellowed and have some dog-ears and small edge tears, but there are only a very few greasy fingerprints.

I can deliver these to Hershey for free on either Wed. or Thurs. Email with any further questions.

Your item will be shipped same/next business day after payment, depending on what time you pay. The exception to this is PayPal e-check payment, which can take up to a week to clear. PayPal says not to ship until the e-check clears, so don't use an e-check if you want fast shipping!.

EBay allows sellers to charge a reasonable handling fee to cover the cost of materials and labor needed to prepare sold items for shipping. Until late 2008, I never charged a handling fee, preferring to save my customers money by providing the packaging time and materials at no charge out of my profits.

Since that time, changes in EBay policies (fee hikes, mandatory PayPal and now fees on shipping cost) have made it significantly more expensive to sell here, reducing those profits. Due to those reduced profits, I can no longer afford to provide all the packaging supplies and labor for free. So I'm reluctantly charging a handling fee.

Handling fee will be $1 to $3, depending on the amount of time and materials needed to package the item. The majority of U.S-bound items will be $1; only larger and/or heavier items will be more. The handling fee will be included in the shipping cost shown in the calculator. If the actual postage + the applicable handling charge turns out to be less than what was shown in the calculator (It's wrong way too often.), the overage will be refunded to you. I always combine shipping - actual postage + ONE handling fee.

To my international bidders: I've found that trying to follow PayPal's (so-called) Seller Protection Policy on international transactions only succeeds in making me crazy and causing my customers inconvenience and extra expense. No matter what you do, there is no REAL seller protection with PayPal, especially on international payments. So I'm just going to not worry about problems until one occurs. USPS International 1st Class will be an option on any item that fits under the weight/size limits for that method.
