Vintage original JEP 1960 full line catalog: Trains, Submarine, Seaplane, more

Description: This auction is for an original full line catalog from JEP, the French toy maker. All of the text in the catalog is in French. On the cover is a stamp from a railroad toy shop in Tampa, FL. There is no date in the catalog, but some of the inside text does say something along the lines of "Founded in 1899, and in business for more than 60 years..." And, there is some text in the description of the Nautilus windup submarine that says, essentially, "new for 1961 a new unbreakable stainless steel spring." Lots of pictures and description (in French) of trains. Good pictures of some of their classics -- the racing seaplane, the Nautilus 919 submarine, the Ruban Blue speed boat. 39 pages long. Please note - I don't ship my books in padded envelopes - I use good boxes, wrapping, and a plastic bag in case it arrives on a rainy day. I've seen too many formerly nice condition books arrive in a padded envelope with busted cover edges. Please see my other auctions and my eBay store for vintage German and other metal animal figures, figural desk items by Heyde and other makers, vintage toy soldiers, tin and windup toys, Marklin cannon, and vintage and out of print books on old toys. Taxes: eBay now automatically adds sales tax to your cost for items going to states that require it. Payment: I accept all the payment methods that eBay offers. Payment is due within four days from the end of the auction. If your payment is not received within this time period the eBay automated sales tool takes over and starts hounding you. Shipping: My auctions end on Saturday. If you pay by 5:00 E.S.T. on Sunday I'll have them in the mail on Monday. Payments made later in the week or purchases made from my store are shipped as soon as I can get to the Post Office, but that can take several days and may not happen until the next Monday. I combine shipping on all purchases made and paid for at the same time (unless you're combining a book and toys as books use inexpensive media mail in the U.S. while toys can't). I use First Class (up to 16 oz) and Priority mail. Books ship media mail. I only charge actual postage - no added fees. I use lots of bubble wrap, peanuts, and good boxes. In a group of multiple pieces each item is wrapped individually. Original boxes or other original paper item go into a plastic bag in case you get delivery on a rainy day. International Shipping: I ship international. Return Policy: Returns are accepted. I use a loupe to examine the toys while I'm listing them and I try and mention the significant condition issues I see. I value my eBay reputation and I'm not knowingly going to put out false or misleading info on a toy. I leave feedback so please do the same. If there is any problem with the item contact me first before leaving feedback, and we’ll work it out.
