I touched one of these beautiful books today. Found in a local antique shop. The leather was exquisite. The page edges were marbled and fabulous. Printed in 1883 or 1889, I'm sorry I can't remember exactly. It was a 22 volume set. Sadly they were a tad out of my price range at $750. They were truly stunning though. I have not read the tagged book but it's on my tbr list. #vintagebooks

My grandmothers collection of Nancy Drew makes me happy. Confession: I‘ve never read a Nancy Drew mystery, too bad she doesn‘t have number 1, because I can‘t start a series on anything but! 📚 #vintagebooks #nancydrew
Talk about VINTAGE! At the request of Leah, here‘s an EIGHTY year old library bound copy of Tryst. It‘s filthy, spotty, torn, and has a Dole Banana sticker on p. 53. Out of print for eons. Stamps in the back go back to 1972.

I‘m starting to run out of room of places to keep my books in my small apartment so there are piles on windowsills and floors lol.
I got these at the Friends of the library sale last weekend. They had a whole table full of vintage books and I grabbed these ones. I wanted so much more but had to resist.

A few years ago, I bought a set of totally awesome vintage OZ books, but aside from the ones I read in childhood, I am yet to read them! I‘m challenging myself to it in 2019 - and I‘m coloring in the 💛yellow💛 brick road as I go! 😆 #itsthelittlethingsyall #bujo2019 #bujolife #bookbujo #librarianlife #wizardofoz #oz #vintagebooks #bookbujo #bulletjournal #bujo #readingchallenge #bookchallenge
The #Russia prompt from #augustisatrip made me immediately think of this book, which I‘ve had since I was a kid. I took the pic on my fur coat, which is all Mrs. Harris wanted from Moscow!! #mrsharris #vintagebooks @vkois88 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
