<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aquitaine, post: 9564355, member: 602&quot;]nearly or about 50 years ago when we went to Williamsburg.......but first one of the &#039;books&#039;-- it&#039;s an old &quot;<i>Rip Van Winkle&quot; A Legend of the Kaatskill Mountains, 1886, J.B. Lippincott Company.....</i>condition is NOT good, but Biblio.com has one in similar condition for $100.00.......of course it&#039;s also still sitting there!!!&nbsp;&nbsp; My main question, at the moment is that there is no spine or binding....has 5 holes that I&#039;m keeping in line with cut toothpicks at the moment.&nbsp; The one online has some old red &#039;string&#039;? running through theirs it looks like........I have some thin nylon I can do similar with to keep it together, which I&#039;d like to do just so it doesn&#039;t get any worse........pictures will be below......DOES that seem like a practical thing to do without harming the book????&nbsp; My plan is to hopefully either donate or sell it.......<b>thank you for ANY and ALL suggestions/input, as always!!!! </b> FIRST IMAGE WILL BE THE ONE ON THE WEBSITE for comparison only!!!&nbsp; The TITLE on the FRONT appears to be the MAIN difference and the &quot;alligatoring&quot; of the &quot;board&quot; cover........</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]458318[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]458319[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]458320[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]458321[/ATTACH]</p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
