Golden Nature Pocket Guides - Zoology,Geology and Regions

This item is a lot of fourteen old Golden Nature Pocket Guides about ecology, zoology, insects, spiders, weather, geology, land forms, geographic regions, ponds, seashells and seashores, Most of these were printed in the 1950s, but a few have more recent printings. Most are in fairly good condition, but a couple have some tape on the outside cover for reinforcement. The pages are in very good condition and without writing or other distress. These were used by my family for more than 50 years. These are great for keeping in your packet when you are in a natural setting.
