Delighted!

I didn't want to tag you without permission or would have! Thank you for what you said, it's right there now in the middle of the cover.

When books were imported and remained unsold, they were pulped after a certain period of time. The covers were ripped off as proof of accounting and to prevent their going back into trade. I am guessing that instead of being pulped, they were sold as raddi and found their way to pavement sellers.

Depends when and where.
