Older Record publications ("the Green Series")
Between 1952 and 1985, the Record Section of BGAS issued 13 editions of Bristol and Gloucestershire records and related material, along with a one-off joint production with the Bristol Record Society in 1988. They are all now out of print, but can generally be found on second-hand book sites.
The content of these books remains of value, so we have scanned all titles as searchable pdfs. Here is a checklist for the whole series, with pdf downloads indicated as appropriate (note, larger books are split into two or more pdfs, to keep file sizes below 5MB):
