In addition to the two HBS titles still on offer, I just recalled two other items I'd like to offer for sale before I venture into retirement.
The first is a rather interesting item for any Chestertonians out there. It is a copy of Chesterton's "Fancies versus Fads" but what makes it particularly interesting is that it is the presentation copy from the publisher to Chesterton himself, and includes G.K. Chesterton's own bookplate as this book came from Chesterton's estate. (Which means that the oil spill you see on the title cover is likely something that happened in Chesterton's home itself no doubt!) Here it is:

Price: Well its pretty unique. I'm simply going to ask interested parties to make their highest offer. Whomever makes the highest offer will get it.

The second and final item I'm offering for sale today is a "lampada" -- the kind of lamp that is used to burn a candle or oil beside an icon or holy picture or what not. (Votive glass not included.)
Price: $65.00 USD
