Included in the lot are the following paperbacks. Books are in VERY GOOD to NEAR FINE condition with some shelf wear. PLEASE refer to pictures for more detailed information on condition. Thank you for considering these book and, as always. Long winded COPY AND PASTE explanation about boring, logistical stuff written in MID JULY of the year of our Lord, 2025. The ILLUMINATED LIBRARYT is a one man operation out of a small 2-bedroom monastery in search of cool books and other interesting paper goods. As you may have noticed I make listing more interesting by inserting jokes in the descriptions and generally pretending to be a medieval monk. Sometimes I even doodle a weird little guy on it. Just like medieval monks used to do. Might make a fun gift?? for a friend who likes books. Even if that friend is yourself. I have three small children and a day job. This doesn’t make me special but sometimes it turns out to be a difficult 2-3 days. Are you still reading? Let me tell you about my packing strategy. I place your book into a nucleus of soft cushy protection using successive layers of wrapping paper, bubble wrap, kraft paper and sometimes even pool noodles. The nucleus is then enclosed in a tough cell wall of a corrugated cardboard box. God bless’em but I know post office employees are chucking boxes around in the back room. Not at the local office where I drop them off. Those are all lovely people. I primarily use recycled boxes and paper as a small contribution towards saving the Earth. If your book arrives in a box from amazon or a diaper box please understand that you are helping me save the earth. I try my best to describe everything as accurately as possible but continue to make mistakes. PLEASE MESSAGE ME IF I MAKE A MISTAKE. You wouldn’t let a brother look like a fool would you? I think these books look? SUPER AWESOME? On the shelves of the monastery. I think they would look? SUPER AWESOME? On your shelf too. Even if it’s not in a monastery. S – if you’ve read this far then maybe you are crazy enough to check out the other books I’ve got in the Library.

Mostly Lionel trains & non Lionel accessories. I’m getting completely out of hobby due to health. Very NICE in my opinion. All you see in the photos is available including the trains, model autos, buildings, accessories, and risqué. People, including the train table. You and I know the value. If you are a retailer, I know you have to make a profit and I will consider that, but don’t low ball me. That’s a waste of everybody’s time. Most what I list will be dusty as I can’t clean them now because of allergies. The dust is no charge. They have sat on my shelf a long time and could use a lube to be safe. Check the photos for the detailed description. I have health issues and can’t do much. I will “consider” breaking it up, but make it worth my while. If you want one or two, most of the items are already listed separately. It would be a LARGE box and weigh a LOT. I’m not going to weigh it all. You give me a zip code and I will do an estimate based on your zip.
