Archived books
Aren't those plates nice! I'm glad that someone is commenting on our Archived Sold books. I only wish we had photos of the books that we have sold in the past 25 years. All these are recently sold. (And besides wanting to keep the Archives, it takes so long to photograph these Topic List books, I can't stand to delete the records!)
