Both books are in excellent condition in terms of the pages. No tears, dog ears, creases, etc. Bindings are intact and tight.

The Wolff dust jacket has a small 3/4 inch tear on the bottom front and some curling of the edges. It also shows shelf wear.

Blue Note cover is in good shape, exhibiting shelf wear, more so on the back.

Asking $25 for the pair. Shipping at cost via media mail. Paypal FF for payment please. Thanks.

There have been a few Francis Wolff photography books.  Can you post pictures of the two books to be sure which titles are in play?  Thanks.

John- I don’t know how to post here. I emailed you a photo. Nice to hear from you.

Great books at an amazing price.  I have both already (and paid a lot more for them), or else I'd be all over this.

I agree that both books were fairly pricey when new (the Francis Wolff book sometimes is even more so now). So this MUST be a great deal here.

I guess I must consider myself lucky I scored both of them (German version of the Francis Wolff book and softcover edition of the BN cover art book) FREE from that jazz collector estate last fall (that also yielded To Bird With Love ;)). 
BTW, about those "a few Francis Wolff books": Long before last fall's finds, I already had bought a copy of "Blue Note Photography" (Francis Wolff/Jimmy Katz) published by Jazzprezzo. Compared to "The Blue Note Years" it does pale by comparison. Mostly because to me personally the Jimmy Katz photogrpahs do not much. They are OK but you can see he is copying the Wolff style. And then many of those more recent jazzmen just are not as sharp, naturally photogenic dudes as those from the 50s and 60s. :D
But it was good to see both Wolff sets do not duplicate each other entirely but sometimes yielded different shots from one and the same recording session. So still somewhat complementary ...
