Greetings to all.
Maurice Betteridge was a member of the Guild and passed away early this year 2020. Maurice was an interesting man with a passionate interest in Christianity, being over time a minister, and the head of several Christian organizations, and including a time as Principle of Ridley College in Melbourne. With this came a strong interest in books, book collecting, and bookbinding. His chief interest was his collection of historic Bibles, most of which he restored, and which now reside in a special collection at Ridley College Library. But Maurice collected widely in related fields, and many of those books have been given to the Guild, some to be added to the Guild Library, and the others to be sold to raise funds for the future operations of the Guild.
I have chosen to list the collection in its entirety, as it reveals something of the nature of the owner. The lists will appear online showing the Guild Library items as already sold. I have done this for those curious about the breadth of the collection, but without the Christian Books and Bibles have already been sent to Ridley. I hope to provide a list of those in due course for those interested in such historic works.
We have labelled these as the Maurice Betteridge Collection, and are offering these to members and those of the book loving community. I have chosen the prices by a comparison of what's available worldwide, and chosen the mid range prices for similar description of quality. I hope my choices are to your liking. The prices listed do not attract GST. Members will receive a discount on the prices listed. Freight can be arranged.
We do not have a shopping cart. If you want to order, send me an email, with a list of the book numbers, plus any questions about the titles if you have them. Extra large photos are shown in the Maurice Betteridge Photo Gallery on the home page. Upon receipt of the order, I will reserve the books showing them online as sold, give the details for the payment by direct deposit along with tracking references, and arrange with you how to get them to you. If you need more information email me and I will reserve and send any additional information. Sale of the books is final and no refunds are offered if the books are not as you require. Ask first please, as we are volunteers not book sellers. All reports are to the best of our knowledge.
All sales will be accompanied by a detailed VBG invoice and receipt. At present the collection of 14 boxes is at my home in Belgrave for contactless pickup. We hope that you will find something to enjoy. There is about 150 items on the list so be prepared to do a bit of scrolling down. The box numbers are so I can find them when you order!!. Don't hesitate to ask questions or send comments.

My regards Jim.
