Breed Books , whats the oldest one you have on your breed

As the tittle says, was looking through my books on Boxers today, and wondered how many and the age of the ones other members had on their breed,

The two oldest I have got on Boxers are:

The Boxer handbook by Joan Dunkels (1951)

Our Friend the Boxer by Rowland Johns (1959)

Come on whats yours... any takes on older!!

The two oldest we have (one a general terrier one I know!):

Terriers by Jane Buckland (1961) given to my mum from her mum and one I still look at now for the gorgeous pictures (especially the scotties, they still make me melt).

The Scottish Terrier by D.A. Caspersz (1958 )

Ps off topic but I bet some of the books on this thread (and to be on this thread), would be worth a few quid on ebay!!!! Just thinking of the Malamute book from another thread.

The Boxer - JP Wager 1949 inc Dust Jacket
Our Friend the Boxer - Rowland John 1951 inc Dust Jacket
Judging the Boxer Enno Meyer - inc Dust Jacket
1955 and 1956 British Boxer Club year books

Also have a booklet produced by Allon Dawson - Boxers of Germany 1930-1935. I don't know when this is dated as there isn't a 'publication' date on it.
