I know this is a long shot, but I am looking to purchase John Dransfield's Genera Palmarum. Release year is not important, but latest issue is preferred. If anybody has an extra/used one lying around and is willing to sell it, I'd be interested. As long as the book doesn't have highlighting/writing/personal footnotes in it, I am not sensitive to the condition of the book. Can be worn.

Willingness to ship out to the EU is necessary as I am not visiting the US/Australia in the near future. Shipping/handling costs will naturally be covered by me.

If I can't find a used edition, I'll buy it off amazon, but I thought I'd try and see if there's anybody on here who'd have one for sale. This ad will be active until I've updated it to say I've found a book. 
 

Species I'm growing from seed: Verschaffeltia splendida, Chrysalidocarpus leptocheilos, Licuala grandis, Hyophorbe verschaffeltii, Johannesteijsmannia altifrons, Bentinckia condapanna, Livistona benthamii, Licuala mattanensis 'Mapu'.

I believe the  International Palm Society (sponsors of this forum) has these in stock. Access available via the webpage. It’s a great book!

I have one of 100 deluxe copies, leather bound , gilt edging, with autographs of Dransfield, Uhl. and Sheehan.  It is in perfect condition, still in the original packaging, ....but I have no idea what would be a fair price ! 

 (Yes, I would be amenable to a sale)

Sorry, was away from the board/internet for a few weeks. Sent you a private message.

I checked it, but didn't see it under their bookstore link.
Should probably write them and ask directly. 

Thanks for the reply. I didn't think to check there.
