Earliest Western Penn I've Seen to Date

[tth2]

This is a book from 1953 so technically not a SA book, but since most of the discussion of the Western Penn pedigree has taken place in this forum and it's generally considered to be a SA pedigree, thought I'd flag this book, which is the earliest Western Penn book I've ever seen . The depth, breadth and quality of this collection truly was amazing!

Hi Tim: You may be seeing more of the early Dells. I beleive the run from the 40's up was sold complete to one collector dealer. I guess he figured out that they were Western Penn copies and had them certified as such.

Any idea what year(s) the latest Western Penns are from? Did the son stop collecting when the first books began to be sold in the late 70s or did he keep going even as the collection was being sold?

I think he has decided to share the story only through the pedigree book, whenever Vol 2 (silver peds) comes out.
