    Phil,

    Great share thanks. Now see, I love that you r-e-a-d them. I know many people sincerely value their books .... that they never read. I'm happy to see but that you've kept them all these years too!

    Hi there, I love NG books and my dad was an avid collector, with his passing I now have his collection and no where to keep them. I am asking if anyone might know how or where I could sell these books? They date back to 1888- 2016! They are some missing here and there, but there are over 2100 books that I know of. I would appreciate any help someone might be able to offer.

    Thanks in advance,

    Tammy
