If I were you I would keep Termans book And the Allied Radio book. If
they are not already collectors books they will be.
My copy of Terman is an First edition/eleventh impression 1935. Its
printed on a casein coated paper. A really beautiful old book.
The others excepting the Motorola zener data book would be useful to
practicing Engineers or someone interested in learning electronics.
The Motorola book will probably not end up as a collectable to the
antiquarian book trade for a while. But it would certainly be of
interest to an Electronically knowledgeable collector.
