This may be my first posting on this forum ever. I recently purchased a local vet grouping and these catalogs were in it. How rare are these and what is the value?

Sorry but you need to do a little more research.. Wittmann has a original Paul S. catalog for sale for $30.00.
L41-1179 #2804 PAUL SEILHEIMER DAGGER CATALOG. And for the other ones I do know Tom Johnson had a large inventory of them and did not sell for a great deal... There was at least 3 of the hunting dagger catalog at the SOS for Under $75.00 and they had no takers the reprints of these go for $14.00... Sorry but these are about as common as they come....Regards:James Maybe someone else can also confirm this...

I just snagged a period Geb.Grafrath catalog and the price insert from a buy with some sa parts and figured I paid about 50$ for it after I broke down the cost of everything else. Its a neat item but I dont think they are the find of the year. The last page of the Grafrath catalog shows sa nskk hj and sawback fire. I bought mine to go along with my hang tag collection so I figured it was ok to pay a bit more than I thought it was really worth. I think if you get morte than 50-70$ you are doing good!
