As pictured, eighteen historic Salvation Army books. All these books have been out of print for many years, and can be very difficult if not impossible to get hold of.

As can be seen from the photos, the books are slightly worn, mainly due to their age. I've tried to any notable wear or damage below:
- some writing at the front of the Missionaries Memories book
- the Orange Guidelines book has the outer cover detached
- and some of the Victory booklets have YP Band and Singing Company library forms inside, or marks where they used to be
- the William Booth book is very worn as can be seen, but all the pages are intact.
- corners folded in Every Inch a Missionary
- writing on front cover of Chaplain on the Barrier
Local collection available from Huyton area of Liverpool.
