I have 112 books that my great uncle gave me years ago.  I have used them as decoration and they look like they have never even been cracked open.  They are all from the 1960's.  All are trade size paperback and in excellent condition other than the yellowing of age.  They do have a small sticker with his name and address (which is still the same) on the inside first page.  I will be marking this out with a black marker for security reasons (I hope you will undersand).  I don't want to try and get the stickers off because I fear it will damage the book and it's not worth that to me.

It's just too hard, I think, to post them on my bookshelf so I have listed them below along with the year the book was published.  Post AND PM which ones you would like and I will get them pulled out, put aside, and marked off the list.

I have bolded every other book to try and make it a little easier to read!
