You Bet I’ll Regret Selling This Antique Blue Book Collection with TONS of Patina!  13 Books Total

I’m downsizing my collections, which is perfect time for you to grow yours!  This collection of 13 antique books in blue is straight from my bedroom, where I’ve grown and displayed it for several years.  Each book in this collection is old and has lots of patina.  You might find staining, cover separation, a missing page here and there, and some loose threads, but these books are gems individually and together.  The smallest book in the collection measures 4” x 6.5” and the largest is 6.25” x 9.5”.  The entire collection spans a length of 16”.
