Found in Books


Be careful what you use as a bookmark. Thousands of dollars, a Christmas card signed by Frank Baum, a Mickey Mantle rookie baseball card, a marriage certificate from 1879, a baby’s tooth, a diamond ring and a handwritten poem by Irish writer Katharine Tynan Hickson are just some of the stranger objects discovered inside books...

I buy a lot of used books but I haven't discovered any treasures between the pages. Maybe I'll spend the rest of the day riffling through them again.
