And the romance titles/covers are a hoot!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110821218504320156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1494925975380418965.post-66816056034318129522011-09-11T03:53:47.984-04:002011-09-11T03:53:47.984-04:00I have to own up to being a bit of a book tart ......I have to own up to being a bit of a book tart ... I collect orange Penguins purely for their look and Observer books to stack on the mantlepiece. I collect Ladybird books too but they are fantastic for teaching younger children facts and how to read, although some of them are a little out of date now.

And, what is more, we are sure that this idea of yours will be widely copied, not least bu ourselves. Such books too make excellent plinths upn which to stand other items, such as an informal vase of flowers where the colours pick up the tints of the book bindings.<br /><br />We are now off to the Balaton for a few days, totally on impulse and leaving the computer behind, to catch the last of the summer. Perhaps there we shall make a start on our own collection of 'Sultry Women' for yours are wonderful!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1494925975380418965.post-56211646938676272422011-09-10T01:25:10.473-04:002011-09-10T01:25:10.473-04:00Ooh, very nice finds!!

I suppose someday they will be few and far between ...every one wants the tablets and E-books now .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11446544989417827497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1494925975380418965.post-63461290492308640762011-09-09T17:51:34.510-04:002011-09-09T17:51:34.510-04:00Hey!

I think a lot of people like the older books for decoration and so it may be a very good idea. <br />Do you have one of those things, I suppose they are some sort of database computer, that tells you what particular books are worth? I used to see them all the time in the thrift stores in California, but not out here.Rubye Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511953177053448513noreply@blogger.com
