[ModLib] Found in Books

[pecksgrove at aol.com]

I once found a canadian dollar in an ML edition.? Mostly its news articles that somehow relate to the book.? I leave the extra material inside the book cause I just think its part of the book as I found it.?

Collectors,

?

The nicest items that I've found inside ML are the advertising brochures.? I've picked up three of them tucked inside the books.? In a couple of cases I bought the book just to get the advertising pamphlet.? As a consequence of the first of these finds I always pull every ML I see off the shelf and flip through the pages to see if there's anything inside that's of more interest than the book itself.? I kinda collect bookmarks also.? On occasion I have transferred a bookmark from?a book I had no interest in to another one that I was going to buy anyway.

?

I have a little pencil pouch in my 3-ring binder that I deposit most everything that I find inside books I've purchased - notes, bills of sale, business cards that have nothing to do with books, etc..., it makes a rather interesting collection even though collectively these item are worthless.

?
