The maps have been claimed. Anyone interested in the cookbooks or older hardbacks? Make me an offer! I'd like to get these out before the post office raises rates next week. :0) Thanks for looking! Rita.

PS--I have a HUGE collection of This Old House magazines that span probably over the past 10 years collecting dust on my bookshelves. Would anyone have interest in these? I'd just need enough credits to justify postage. Say, maybe 5 magazines per credit with a 2 credit minimum? They are chocked full of great DIY home improvement ideas. (And, the only magazine we have subscribed to religiously over the past decade!) We just have so many now that they are taking over the house.

Thanks! Rita.
