Yeah but that's a long time between posts. Anyway, speaking of large books,
I think I have the world's largest collection of large elephant folios,
elephant folios and large folios. Over 1,000 + I have the entire Acta
Sanctorum here (had to wait so long for the Propylaeum to be published so my
set would be complete).....sheesh.
