75 book lot of mass market (pocket) paperback books. This lot is a random assortment, and has some newerish stuff, and a lot of olderish stuff. Includes MacInnes, Goines, Greer, Barnard, Pym, Milosz, Terkel, Segal, Wambaugh. These books are a total mix of genre, author, period. It's like if you took a bag of Skittles, a bag of M&Ms, a thing of Mentos, And a couple packages of Starburst candy, and mixed them all in a bowl. There is going to be something you really like, and then you'll get a Mento. But that's OK, because then you can move on to a Skittle. ----- All proceeds benefit charity! Books in Hand is a California based Federal 501 c3 literacy focused nonprofit, that works to get books off the shelves of the ex-user, and put them in the hands of the end user. We keep books out of the landfill, move them along to folks who want them, and give all profits to local schools. ----- The books you see are the exact books you will get. Most of these are "older", which in a MMPB might mean from the 80s. They are all generally in acceptable to good condition. They are "reading copies." They have all been well-loved, and well-used. Expect that the spines are creased, the covers might be bent, there might be a few small tears in some pages, the pages are likely tanned. There is NOT any significant mildew odor, no major staining, and no major binding failure. (Please check the books at pickup. If any significant damage is found, it is highly likely that it can be replaced with a substantially similar book before you leave.) Pickup category timeslot {B}
