A Book Collection For Sale 

    First and foremost, I hope everyone is doing well and are healthy. These are very hard times, and most people are  following what the authorities tell them. However, there are others who don't care about rules and are risking getting the Corona Virus. Several incidents have happened where people congregated in group and caught the virus. Other people had the virus and didn't tell anyone, and they passed on the virus to others. Our federal, provincial, and city governments have now created  hard rules  for disobeying new laws and rules of conduct and financial penalties (some as high as $ 6,000.00). I hope these people will know now that they won't be allowed to break the law.

     I've decided to sell my collection of toy books.  I have 39 assorted sizes of books from pamphlets to coffee table books ( large books), and including hard and soft covered books. I'm selling them all together, and am asking $ 500.00 US dollars. Please note that collectively, the books weigh 
62 pounds  (29.4835 Kg). Also, the cost of shipping is going to be expensive depending where you live. You may also have to pay duties or taxes on the books. The books were published in different years. Some books are reproductions of original books, and there are as I mentioned small pamphlets.

     The reason for not selling them individually is that the set makes a good start to those who collect toys, and I felt that someone who in fact is a collector or seller of toys would like the collection. If nobody will want to buy the collection within 3 months, then I will sell them individually.
