I have been looking for more 1950s era Bobbsey Twins mystery books ever since my girls and I finished books #1-#11 together. Today I found books #16, #20, #22 and #50 at our Half Price Books for only $2 each! The are in fabulous condition and are the ones that were released in the 50s, so they have the great line drawings in them and all the vintage language (our books #1-#11 were from the 50s updated publishings, as well - the original Bobbsey Twins came out in the 1920s, I think - maybe even earlier. I like the 1950s versions best!)

I love reading vintage books with my daughters. I shrieked when I saw these on the shelf today!

Had to share!

Anyone else have a good second hand bookstore find lately?

Suzanne, Half Price definitely has some good finds! That's awesome you were able to find such old books in good condition.
