I'll add this one to my stack, please:
Rewinding Small Motors, Karl Wilkinson, Newnes, 1965, Hardbound with dust jacket, very good, $30
 
Turret Lathe Tools, Warner & Swasey, 1947 catalog, spiral bound, very good, $12
Warner & Swasey Tools Catalog 59B, 1963, spiral bound with hard cover, fine, $15

Are the above both the same, just different years?

Yes. The chapters have the same titles, mostly the same contents, the 63 catalog is pristine, hardly looks to have ever been opened.

Turret Lathe Operator's Manual, Warner & Swasey, 1940, hardbound, spot of paint on front cover, very good, $12

Is this specific to using a W/S machine or does it apply to turret lathes in general?

Specific to W/S in one sense, all the illustrations are of W/S machines. However I would think any turret lathe would be similar enough that it would be useful.

I would like the 4 below and probably a few from above.

Babbitt Metal, Mechanic's Notebook 4, Lindsay Publications reprint, paper, $2
Hints on Lining Bearings, Hoyt Standard Babbitt, paper, $2
How I Pour Babbitt Bearings, Vincent R. Gingery, 2001, isbn 1-878087-24-x, paperback, very good, $4

Done. The Hints on Lining Bearings book is already spoken for.

Please email me your address and email address. When all the lists are up I will send you a total.
