Cleaning out a closet in a seldom used wing of the house and -- found a couple of boxes of magazines i thought had long ago been sent to a recycler bin (or just dumped)

The closet cleanout i described in my post about finding old magazines actually started when i was trying to organize a bunch of lost and forgotten books - as i "rescued" 2 old library carts to repurpose at my house - these came from the FAA and were used for technical manuals and the like - i didnt really do anything to restore them except power wash decades of crud off of them and then liberally apply some lemon Pledge -- the worn patina goes well with the rest of my crapola and they are pretty handy but in going through closets full of books i found some treasures that are interesting

This one i think is really cool, from Grits Gresham -- signed - would love to share a pic of it with Mr Tom on one of his social media outlets, but i am not well versed on using "X"

Lots of Hemingway stuff, but these are coffee table books highlighting America's favorite alcoholic

Bill Jordan's classic - curiously with the font on the spine of the dust jacket printed upside down --

next up is the Rifle Omnibus - flanked by a copy of the Good Book

And a heavily used copy of The Complete Book of Rifles and Shotguns - by Mr .270, Jack O'Connor

I've been an avid reader my whole life -this is a mere fraction of the pile , as i have tons of more general interest and non fiction on hand , but these are the gems of the firearms and hunting categories -- i only hope that one day i will have somebody in my family that is interested enough to pass my books (and guns) down to

Don’t throw them in the recycle bin! I’ll take them, or trade you a stack of other hunting/handgun/rifle magazines.
