Swyers, Forrest A.
Street Railways of Sant Louis.
Publisher: No place: Published by author, No Date (ca. 1960)..
No Edition Indicated Quarto in blue pictorial wraps. 29 [32] pages illustrated by photographs, engravings, maps, drawings. An interesting history of the streetcars operated by several companies in St. Louis with the final piece on the Water Works Car Line by Berl Katz. Illustrations, all on versos, are frequently reproductions of vintage engravings. Textual history is extensive for such a small publication, with the print being small. There is no publication information whatsoever in the book, and attributing publication to the author is a presumption. Text is a bit toned as are the edges of the covers. Otherwise a clean, sound copy. Softcover Softcover Very Good+

Perles, Anthony with John McKane, Tom Matoff and Peter Straus.
The People's Railway: The History of the Municipal Railway of San Francisco, Interurban Special 69.
Publisher: Glendale CA: Interurban Press, 1981..
First Edition ISBN: 0916374424 Quarto, about 11 inches tall, in red pebbled cloth. 260 pages plus a pair of fold out maps at rear. Illustrated by photographs, maps, and frontis / jacket art by Gil Reid. An excellent entry in the series of books on the Muni that include "Inside Muni", "White Front Cars of San Francisco", and "San Francisco, Tours of Discovery". The book shows minimal extremity wear, an edge crease to each of the fold out maps, and very light soiling to the front endpaper. The jacket is complete with light edge wear. The spine appears to be sunned but the original color isn't all that obvious. There is a little rippling to the rear panel, probably indicating water exposure, but the book shows none of that.
