A box of 5 rare books. The condition of these books varies. Some have bindings intact and are very readable, some have pages that are brown and brittle, and some are missing spines and have loose pages. Nevertheless, Antiquarians among you might find something interesting here, while you ebay sellers ought to be able to make a profit as well. And there is even something here for the arts and crafts enthusiast. For example, Mom used to cut out pages from very old books and frame them. The 5 books are:

Betty Comes to Town by Elizabeth Fordham - 1909
We Dine on Linen Damask forward by Emily Post - 1926
Riverside London, A Sketchbook - by Wollard and Boxer - 1927
The House in Good Taste by Elsie de Wolfe - 1913
Silverware, the Autocrat of Every Table - 1926

I am selling the lot for $30, or $6 a book.

My mom collected antiques her entire life. She loved going to flea markets and thrift stores in search of hidden treasures. Now that she has passed I am selling off her collection.
