Eureka! finds

Description: Over the years I have come upon some truly heart-stopping "finds" in library book sales, second-hand shops, yard sales, etc. I thought some other people might like to share their stories of unexpectedly finding that rare, perfect book; or finding the book they'd been searching out for ages; or finding a "steal" they couldn't quite believe.
