Paleonet: Library sale

Over the past fifty-plus years I’ve accumulated  a huge hoard of interesting 
books, papers, and periodicals, on topics ranging  from dinosaurs and 
paleontology to astronomy and space, to mathematics and the  hard sciences, to comic 
books, strips and fanzines, to science fiction and  philately, among others(!). 
These items have clogged my garage and office for  years, and as I enter 
retirement, it is time for some major housecleaning.  Ninety percent or more of my 
library—literally hundreds of big boxes of  stuff—will be going on the block 
over the next few years.

Every week I  will devote a few hours to picking things out of my library 
that I find I can  live without, and listing them for sale on eBay. Anything that’
s in junky  condition or deteriorated in storage I will simply discard; only 
neat stuff in  nice condition will appear for sale. Most lots will start at a 
mere 99 cents  plus a $3.15 Media Mail shipping charge–more for collectibles 
or items/lots too  heavy or bulky to ship for $3.15, or stuff to be sent to 
foreign  destinations.

To make it easy to find my stuff, I’ll make sure the  letters “DGLib” (for 
Dinogeorge’s Library) will appear in the heading of every  lot. That way you 
can simply set an eBay search to look for “DGLib” to find  everything unsold I 
have to offer. I’m well known for the depth of my library,  so you may find 
stuff here that you’ve never been able to find anywhere else. Be  sure to look 
in every week.

The first 23 lots, now up, include a complete  run of the Japanese 
periodicals Dino Frontline and Dino Press in pristine  condition (but not starting at 99 
cents!).
