I am an avid reader and I started collecting books when I was in college. The reading and hunting for older books would give my mind a break from all the studying. After graduating, I stopped collecting but still bought books for reading. As the years went by, I found that most books are online and there is no more need for a physical book. However the workmanship in some of the older books can never be know from reading a book in a digital format. The first picture is just a few of the older books in my collection. I have never gotten rid or sold any of them. The second picture are two of the oldest books in my collection. As you can see on the cover, the first one, Peter Parley's Annual, is from 1883. The second, An Endless Chain, is from 1884. They are over 135 years old and still in good shape. https://ctptalk.com/@darmst5339/iaac-day-120-several-books-in-my-collection-are-over-100-years-old #Iamalivechallenge
