7/26/24 – This is a lightly used 2 Volume set of Vanderlinden’s recent resource book. Excellent condition with light use wear / mild cosmetic imperfections. This is Anthony Vanderlinden’s Third Edition of his masterful resource book on FN Browning Pistols. A collector’s resource unlike any other on the topic. The third edition is a two volume set with significantly different and major expansions in almost every chapter. Both books utilize high quality color pages and images in order to make reading more user friendly. This third edition has 840 pages in 2-volumes, compared to 368 pages in the second edition. Not only did the page count more than double, this edition has 2,790 color and period black and white photos. Many historic photos have never been published in an English language book.
The third edition contains the following major expansions:
– Expanded biographies of key individuals
– New information on John Browning and FN
– Expanded information on FN’s dealer network and agents, including biographies on those agents
– Expanded and detailed coverage of grip variants as well as manufacturing and marking details.
– Expanded information on pistol models, variants, and contracts.
– Expanded information on FN during World War II: the occupation and resistance activities
– More than 120 pages are dedicated to accessories. For the first time ever in print, reference guides will help collectors identify magazine production time frames, help identify and date presentation cases, and identify shoulder-stocks. The holster section has vastly been expanded to include many rare holsters.
– Counterfeit warnings throughout the book: alerting collectors what has been reproduced, so they can be better informed.
– … and much more!
