The Missing Chums

Hardy Boys 04: The Missing Chums | Franklin W. Dixon

$18 yard sale haul today by @BookBabe and me ???????!!! (To the left is a vintage 1940s typewriter included in this haul.) Let's seeee....the "Anna Karenina" is 70 years old this year. The O. Henry's are 97 years old. The oldest Hardy Boys date back to 1942, the French stories collection to '45, and the tiny shorthand manual in the upper-left to 1958. Quite. The. Deal. ???

[DELETED] 2232195534 Shorthand - bet not too many remember that. I used to be pretty fast at it, but have forgotten most. Yes, I'm vintage. 😂 8y

MrBook @BookishMarginalia 😎🙌🏻👌🏻! @DebinHawaii @SharonGoforth @Kleonard Thank you 😁👍🏻! @Bookworm-Bobbie Thanks, we do what we can 😆👍🏻! @HotCocoaReads It was the second weekend of a week-long sale, and they had crates and crates of books left! If only we had more $$$. Just goes to show how little people in my area read, because they were browsed by hundreds of people (it was on a main drag) with hardly any buys. *sighs* 8y

MrBook @gibblr Come on over 😎👍🏻! @BooksTeasAndBookishThings Oh, we knew you would fancy that one, hence my specific inclusion 😉👍🏻. @LauraBeth That's what we said, lol 😆👍🏻! @kaysreadinglife 😂👏🏻👌🏻! I learned some shorthand in high school ☺️. 8y

MariaCristina Niiiice! I've got a vintage typewriter at my mom's house, but shipping it would cost more than I paid for it ($20 at an antique sale 20 years ago). Womp womp. 8y

MrBook @KimM Thank you 😁👍🏻! @ApoptyGina69 Well, @BookBabe 's eyes landed upon it and she said if I didn't add it to the pile the rest of the weekend would be most unpleasant 😂👏🏻👍🏻. @erzascarletbookgasm It is fun, and we're fortunate to live in a region that seems to specialize in that, lol. 8y
