Vintage book collectors rejoice! My recent foray into estate sale land did indeed yield some treasures. Sadly, the copy of The Little Prince I found is not a true first edition, but it is not too far off from one, as confirmed by some in-depth online research. I have some more estate sale scores that are not featured here that I’ll try to get out onto the floor today or tomorrow. In the meantime, chew on these! #bleakhousebooks #vintagebooks #rarebooks #firstedition | Bleak House Books
