Jonni, Sandra -- I sent your books to you yesterday. We just need to complete our barters -- when you're ready to. OK?
OK, I have such a weakness for books . . . especially vintage . . . but I must move a few of them on to good homes. These are two three vintage books I have for barter:
Fun for Boys: The Complete Book of Games, Hobbies, Sports and Recreation, copyright 1943. This is a wonderful book! Chapters include 'The Secrets of Cartooning,' 'How to Identify Aircraft' (WWII aircraft!), 'Bulding Model Planes', 'How to Handle a Rope Like a Cowboy' . . . and more. Cover shows its age and the pages are yellow; both a nostalgic and useful book for boys and girls. Taken
Girl Scout Handbook copyright 1947, printed 1952. Another nostalgic and useful book . . . lots of wonderful information on the out-of-doors and mapping and of course all the badges. Green hardcover; great condition (some yellowing on the inside cover), binding tight, pages clean.Taken
Basic Electricity, Vol. 1 copyright 1954. This is a text based on the Navy's basic electricity and basic electronics courses, with numerous illustrations -- presented in a straightforward and understandable way. Hey, I even understand electricity with this book! Great for homeschooling for an in-depth study of electricity -- this is a basic yet thorough course -- high school or above.Taken
Wanna trade? I'm pretty open . . . the usual list: buttons, vintage rick-rack, homemade soaps, etc. Or what do you have?
Just let me know!

Katie --would it be possible to claim the "Fun for Boys" book (for my husband?) He's SUCH a WWII nut, and a cartoonist :)

Jonni -- This is a perfect book for your husband!! Mine loved looking at it . . . he was born in 1948 and remembers all the old WWII aircraft still around when he was a young boy.

Oh Katie...I never got your email! Whew...good thing I was looking out here! I will get your stuff together and my daugher has hotmail and I get hers...hummm....try a test one again and I will keep a look out. I got a new pc with VISTA and the Window's mail sends some of mine to junk without asking me! These new pcs have a lot of nerve if you ask me! I need your address. I'll send you an email and maybe you can "reply" to it and that will work? I'm so excited! I thougth when put "taken" on it that someone else had gotten them. Oh BOy!!!! I wlll send you all that you asked for..I have buttons, rickrack and I have handmade soaps (I didn't make them but they are handmade!) and anything else I can dig up that I think you would like! Awesome! So cool! thanks again!
