Library sales!  I go to library sales.  Scored Burton's 1001 Nights... all
16 volumes.  Payne Gallwey's opus on the Crossbow printed in1958.  "The
Scents of Eden" brand new not an ex lib.  The above referenced 2 volume set
in a single volume.  Hardbacks sold at $1 or $2 dollars each.  "Embroidery"
edited by Christie printed in 1909 in London by James Pearshall & Co.  Tis a
big thick book with both color and black and white plates many of which are
period examples albeit 16th century.
