While moving we handled eleventy-billion books and in the process found all sorts of interesting things inside of them. At the end of the day I arranged them and took a photo. Here is a gallery of some of the things we found. I am thinking about making this a regular thing on my blog. It’s kinda fun.

      Frank, I think it appeals to the voyeur in me, too. I am super fascinated with found objects in general.

    What fantastic finds! You need to document all these then put up a display in the library commemorating the found items.

      I love that idea! I am told that one of our patrons put together a scrapbook of found items in books a few years ago and displayed it in the library. Everyone has been telling me about it and I need to see it. That is so something I would do, too! I am going to save these things and see what I can come up with. I like the idea of creating some kind of art with them.

    Neat! And heartily third the idea of this as a photo project… (And as a blog feature.)
