Collection of 7 Vintage Crochet Books - 90 Doily Patterns circa 1940s, 1950s and 1960s

You are bidding on a collection of 7 vintage books containing 90 doily crochet patterns. The collection is on a professionally made compact disk (CD).
The books are as follows (you can see pictures below):
1) Doilies No. 145, circa 1940s
2) Doilies No. 184, circa 1942
3) Pineapple Designs, circa 1946
4) Doilies Design Book, circa 1960
5) Doilies in the Modern Manner, circa 1953
6) Doilies to Treasure, circa 1950s
7) Ruffled Doilies No. 107, circa 1950s

This particular auction contains Parts 1 and 2 of 4 doily collections I am selling. It includes everything from those collections (49 + 41 = 90 patterns) at a fraction of the cost. Take a look at the other collections for more great patterns!

This one of a kind collection is full of masterpieces from the past. You would be lucky to find it in a vintage book store and even if you do, you should expect to pay a hefty price for it. When you do the math, I`ve priced it so that each pattern costs less than fifteen cents. Every pattern comes with detailed, easy to follow instructions. Other vendors on Ebay are selling similar items for at least twice the cost.

You may ask yourself "What are the benefits of having a digital copy?". Well, here are a few:
- Every page has been scanned to create clear images, meaning you never have to handle old, worn-out books that are falling apart
- You can print out the patterns you want, as much as you want
- The quality scans are at a high resolution – you can zoom in and out for as much detail as you want
- The book is in PDF format and can be opened with Adobe Acrobat - a free and user-friendly application, which is available for free here
