Old Books- Who doesn't love them

-


As we were putting some books away in storage bins, I came across part of a centenary set of The complete works of Edgar Allen Poe- it's volume 4 of the set it says. Looking it up it is from a 1903 printing.  I love it when you find cool stuff in your own stuff!




I also found a copy of this, a paperback from the 70's with a different cover. But I am going to read it tonight. It is a bit of a different take on Santa Claus

I processed the photos for the next 2 posts on my photography/road trip blog November Obscura  so be sure to check it out. I will likely be posting there again by Saturday afternoon. The photos of Concordia Cemetery turned out nice! Who knew that such a barren, albeit famous cemetery would be so photogenic! Thats the great thing about photographing cemeteries, they are all so different! Like people I suppose, but I don't like photographing people. Cemeteries are my favorite subjects, followed by things. .  like buildings, machines, old stuff.  I think the November Obscura blog explains it all. Our more extensive photo galleries are located at www.novemberobscura.com
