Found in a northern Ohio farmhouse library - 200 years and more of books and paper - they loved, and kept, all their books and paper. We gathered eight pickup truckloads from that library - bringing all of it to you via eBay now.No wear beyond a faint marking, front leading on each, probably from name-stickers now cleanly removed, No looseness, No mustiness, No smoke smell. We do try to describe them correctly - we want you back - hundreds of repeat customers. No names, a few checkmarks among the event listings, No other markings, No dogears, No Bookplates, NOT Remainder-marked. Don't let this pair by you - this is a marvelous Americana find.
