    I need your help!! Vintage books destroyed!!

    Hi kids!

    I need some help locating these novels due to a leaky basement!
    This is pretty devastating to me since I bought all these right off the shelves new!
    If you have extras or can get these, it'd be really appreciated!
    I don't have a lot of cash, but maybe I can trade sewing for books.

    Thanks for looking, T

    I'll keep my eye out for them. Are you only looking for 1st printings?

        If possible
        Escape is a 5th printing, so no real worry there

                            Thanks, B!!
                            Definitely feeling the love here

                            Just a bit of history on those books!
                            After I bought and read them, most one time. I stored them in a turkey box. Remember when turkeys came in one??
                            For over twenty years they were safe and sound snuggled together.
                            We just moved into this house and I had my own little room in the basement. Had a different problem in that room and I had to clean it out.
                            I set that box on the floor. Of course I checked on my goodies to make sure nothing was attacking my books.
                            Was OK until the other night when water (rain, ground??) had completely saturated the bottom of that box!!!
                            Oh and of course the books pictured here sucked water all the way to the tops of the books!!

                            I have more books that I'm TRYING to salvage, drying out....
