I prefer Priority Mail for shipping but will ship as buyer prefers. Media Mail is the least expensive method and that is the rate shown as shipping charge below. Delivery Confirmation is included in shipping charges as a protection for both buyer and seller. Questions? Just e-mail me.
If you are a Gilbert and Sullivan fan, this is a must for your library; if you are a conoussieur of beautiful books, it belongs there also!
