"Books are not made for furniture, but there is nothing else that so beautifully furnishes a house."

I'm such a nerd. I got my copy of the The Manhattan Rare Book Company's catalogue today and I've been ogling dust jackets and slipcases for the last hour or so. If I wasn't so possessive of each and every one of my own books, I might consider having some of them appraised. When I was a kid, I didn't dream about having the biggest car on the block, or having a pool in my backyard. I wanted a library in my house. I still do.
