Encyclopaedias. A box, to include The Beaulieu Encyclopaedia of the Automobile, edited by Nick Georgano and published in two volumes in 2000 by The Stationery Office, London. These books were claimed to be 'The most comprehensive book ever written about the world of cars and set to become a must-have for anyone with a love of motoring'. Both volumes retain the marginalia and crossings out in the manuscript hand of Bryan Goodman. The complementary volume titled Coachbuilding is also offered. Also included is the 1982 edition and the Motorsport volume edited by Nick Georgano, and other similar titles. All are working copies. (10)

Note: Although not illustrated, this lot contains both volumes of the 2000 published encyclopaedia and its coachbuilding companion, making ten books in total, not nine.
