As a bookseller, it's emotionally wrenching when a book sells.

One of my favorites left us for a good home (which is a comfort.)

It looks like it's about
Dark Magic.

In a way, yes? Caltech lectures on Space from the 50s.

Fare thee well...

Might be taking a bookbinding / restoration course. It's been a long time since I attended that 1-day bookfair session :b

Practice book:
1955 Yearbook of Agriculture

I love the cover art, the paper is wowzers, and the preface is almost lyrical.

Did you know Monopoly was invented by a feminist, as a critique of capitalism?

This one isn't for sale, so I'm not even going to attempt describing condition (even if it were great, I don't think it's terribly collectible...)

My childhood copy :) It's been read a lot, as you can see. By my parents, then me, then my kids.
