I love to read.
I love Book Sales
at the local library.
I like to find
boxes of books
under tables at
estate sales and auctions.
I like the thrill of the dig.
I enjoy technology that is available
with the click of a button,
I must confess.
I have a Kindle
and I read even more now.
But it will never be like turning the pages
of a good book.
Effective Speaking,
is well written and practical
even for today.
The book was perfectly bound with only
a little wear around the edges.
I don't know about antique books
or First Editions.
The copyright was 1908
and showed no other dates of publishing.
Does that make it a First Edition?
I always read the dedications.
If I were to write a book,
it would be dedicated to my mama
who taught me the beauty of expression
in the written word.
A red book and a red bow is about
as close to decorating for
Heart's Day as this girl's gonna get!
Happy Weekend!

Hello Bonnie, What a very special find, I am thinking we all need a crash course in this area. I enjoyed catching up on some of your post!
ReplyDeleteI want to wish you a very Happy Valentines Day!!

I'm not much of a techno person. I'm a big fan of real books too. If hubby would build me more shelves, I would have a house full of them. ~:)
ReplyDeleteWe love browsing thru stacks of books too. This one looks lovely displayed on your table. Have a happy weekend.
ReplyDeletewow, that is old. it has to be? wow, what a great find. ( :
ReplyDeleteHolidays get over-decorated. Simplicity is often better!!! I like real books that you can hold, too.
