Hi. I notice that you live in Adelaide, as I do, and I wondered if you would like to join the Book Collectors Society. We are a small, but dedicated group, now connected with the national society. Membership costs $10 per annum, and, if you wish, you can subscribe to the national publication "Biblionews." ($30). We are going to have a meeting soon, and if you contact me I will send you details.
You are welcome to look at my collection notes in Library Thing (it is far from completion). One other member also has his collection posted. My email address is wilmarlibrary@internode.on.net. If you with you can post a reply to Library Thing. If you do not reply no offence is taken. Fraternally Glen Ralph
