Trying to clean up the library shelves. Here is a question.
I have about 18 of the thick and heavy aircraft & engine manuals/binders for mostly British aircraft. They take up approx. 2 meters of shelf space.
They include Vanguard, Armstrong, Varioous Vickers, Argosy, various Dunlop, Rolls-Royce, S20 Series Comet engine Overhaul, and some Canadair, and Caravelle, as well.
The “historic” question is..”Are they “Obsolete” or collectors items?
Will gladly trade them for civil aircraft items, lit, memorabilia etc. But they are Heavy! for shipping. and I am in U.S.

They’re collectable.
Some people collect them…I even have a few…including an original P-51,
C-47 and P-40.

Hello Peter; Looks like two of the parts manuals.
1. Canadair CL 44D-4 Aircraft Recommended Spare parts list, and
2. CL44 Dunlop aircraft Equipment 1961
Also noticed addition of DH 125 Maint. Manual, Vicker VC-10, S.E 210 Caravelle, and a couple of Vicker Vanguard Maint. manuals in a numbered series. Most are Maint mnuals or parts lists or engine manuals etc
Are they worth making a detailed listing of?
I also have three or four Super Constellation manuals, from an entirely different soource. I assume there would be some interest on those. But putting these British ones on Ebay does not appeal to me. Rather just get something in return that interests me more.
Can gladly detail and supply photos on request.
Also have the following Canadair negative and print collection (but that is a different topic)
Canadair negatives
Misc.
Northstar/DC-4M (75)

and about 200 photo prints, in addition to those..
