uispeccoll:We’ve all been there. You lend a book to a well-meaning friend, only to NEVER see it again. That is why I have my own book embosser. If only I had my own copy of The Book Detektive! This gem from the 1930′s is a hilarious poke at all of those friends who are near and dear to our hearts, but horrible at returning the books we love. The book includes a notepad to keep track of your loaned books, a bookplate, some bookmarks to include with all the books you loan, and even form letters to use in the most uncomfortable book lending situations. Use this book and never have to wonder where your books are wandering ever again! -KellyPS3525.O71 Z66 1938 Cooke, Beach. The book detektive / planned by Beach Cooke ; with an admonition by Christopher Morley. New York : William Morrow & Co., [c1938] -- source link
