A couple of weeks ago, I won a number of books in Michael Popek's Friday Book Giveaway. You see, Michael works in the family Antiquarian bookstore, and comes across unusual items used as bookmarks. He has been posting them on his blog, but the blog is now so popular, he has decided to expand his (and our) horizons. He just recently published a book that contains images of the bookmarks that he's found, and includes an image of the books they were discovered in. If you're interested in stories, these bookmarks are story-tellers.
I couldn't resist using an Author stamp (Hemingway), and a Bread Wagon stamp, since I hope this book is his land-locked version of his ship coming in. Thank You, Michael. For the second time you've given me a gift, and I'm all for re-gifting.
Don't forget to visit Beth Niquette's blog The Best Hearts Are Crunchy for more delectable candy that's been through the mail.
Awesome!
ReplyDeleteYou will have a book of your own to write, you have great stories.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed looking through your work. Very nice, and fun stories too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great book that must be!
ReplyDeleteIt's always amazing what people will use as bookmarks! I used to work in a library.....
ReplyDeleteI rarely use bookmarks because I lose them most of the time, lol. But that is an interesting book to read about different bookmarks people use/used.
