    SAMUEL EVANS EWING III
    Born in Bryn Mawr, PA, Samuel Evans Ewing III graduated from Princeton in 1952, attended University of Pennsylvania School of Law and became a partner of Ewing & Ewing Law Offices in 1955.
    He embarked on this grand tour of Great Britain in April 1956.
    Mr. Ewing is best remembered for establishing Eagle
    Farms Kennel in Chester Springs, PA.  Its international fame earned him the nickname “Mr. Irish Wolfhound.”
    Sam passed away in 2004 at age 74. To symbolize his incredible contribution to the breed, the funeral procession to his grave included more than a dozen Irish Wolfhounds.

    Condition Details:
    Please
    take time to watch the 2 short videos (links above) for a close look at this collection's condition and contents.
    - All the contents are in gorgeous vintage condition. No sign of abuse.
    - The important thing is that there's simply too much material to fit in the size book he used, so all the pages are loose from the cover and need to be rebound to it.
    - This is from a non-smoking environment.
    Please supersize all photos and WATCH THE VIDEOS before bidding.  Thank you.
    The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?)  It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that
    there will be something
    about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.

    ALL ABOUT SHIPPING...
    ]
    DON'T OVERPAY FOR SHIPPING:
    U.S. purchasers, you can choose from various
    shipping options
    in this listing.  Shipping costs vary dramatically depending on your Zip code, so choose the one that best suits your needs.  I never inflate shipping to make hidden profits.  If you believe the shipping is too high,
    please message me
    with your Zip code, and I'll be glad to double-check it for you!
    SHIPPING UPGRADES:
    At our discretion, we may upgrade your shipping to a
    different service

    do not
    wish to have your shipping choice upgraded,
    please message me
    as soon as you complete your purchase.
    INTERNATIONAL
    SHIPPING:
    By default, international shipment is through eBay's Global Shipping Program, which means the shipping rate (cost) is determined by eBay -- outside my control.  BUT ...
    If you live in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, or U.K.
    ,
    message me
    to see whether there
    may
    be a cheaper alternative using Priority Post -- depending on the size and value of your parcel.
