[URL]https://oaklandlibrary.org/found-in-a-library-book/[/URL] I have saved things found in books, but through several moves I seem to have misplaced most of them. I also used to save small items that I found on the ground, if interesting, and pinned them to a bulletin board in my office. Never found money in a book, but once when I was about 12 or 13 found a pack of cigarettes on the ground in front of a factory as I walked past there.
