That reminds me of a movie Farenheit 451 where people had to memorize their book to keep it alive. Personally I don't like these KINDLE things.I need a paper thing (preferrably hard back) to hold and feel.

In Italy most of public libraries are not preservation libraries, so discard old book (because they have no room for all) and keep the "just published" even the silly ones... . But there are "subversive" librarians thak take care of interesting old books, too. I am fond of all books with smell of  previous lives, as well as found objects, of course.....

Hahaha!  I know that picture... I was around then (here in the bay area - not in the bathroom when she took that rubber bath! lol).  I love that book.

 

I am saddened that a library would get rid of it!  There's nothing else like it.  But, I'm glad you found it on Amazon.  Cool!

It's a great image, Linda - sometimes it's hard to relax after something coming out so well the first time.  Give it some time and you'll get something you like again.  This is a great stamp!

I like the raw impression a rubberstamp like this can give. So, yes, like this sample!

Those are wonderful!  Nice work, Litsa.  Tam is a lucky rubberstamp archive. ;)
