The three volume set that this gentleman has written covering lever guns, are they good value? Are they available in hard cover? Only seem to be able to find them in paperback. Will this be of excellent use to a collector.
They run around 16 or 17 dollars each on amazon.
Art’s books are definitely worth the $$.
No, they were not ever offered in hard cover.
As with most books about Winchesters, there are a number of statistical errors in his books.

I have all three books as well. Like all literature out there on the subject of Winchesters, they are not perfect, but are a nice compliment to what else is available. I have gone to them numerous times to check this and check that, cross reference them with other material. Glad I bought them.
I too hope he is on the "right side" of the grass. I think if he wasn’t though, we’d have heard otherwise by now.

I used to see Art and his brother at the Big Reno show on a regualr basis, but apprearntly Lou Fascio said or did something that Art did not like, and that was the last time I saw him. Art was a great guy, and always had many bins full of original parts.

I haven’t noticed him at any guns hows here in Phoenix 1475 but I will certainly keep a look out. Thanks. Seems like I need to get these books and learn something and have excellent reference material.. Perhaps we could start a little "reference" library of recommended Winchester literature.
Thx guys

This would explain his eastern carbine definition in the Rifle or carbine thread.
