Friends of the Sierra Madre Library Best Used Book Sale

Vintage books
will be featured at the next Friends of the Sierra Madre Library’s Best Used
Book Sale being held in the basement and back parking lot of the library on
Friday, February 7, 2014 from 3:00-7:00 p.m. and Saturday, February 8, 2014 from
10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.  We have some wonderful sets such as "Journeys
Through Bookland" (1909), "The World of Mark Twain"(1924), and
the complete set of "Abraham Lincoln" by Carl Sandberg (1939). Also available
are several volumes by famed historian and writer, Page Smith, and books by
authors as varied as Bill Mauldin, Pearl Buck and Charles Dickens.  A
charming book contains letters from famous people in the past to their
children.  In addition, on our FEATURED shelves, we'll have a collection
of classic children's books as well as a group of both newer and traditional
California history books.

In the
basement we’ll be offering coffee-table books on art, popular culture, cooking,
history and sports.  These volumes are in wonderful condition and are
reasonably priced.   Our Bargain Book Table on the
parking lot offers good quality books at only $1 each and we have several
tables of paperbacks and children’s books at twenty-five cents each or 5/$1.00.

These sales
offer high quality, slightly used books that are culled from our library
shelves or donated, books that you’ll be proud to place in your own library or to
give to friends and family.  So come
early and come often to see what treasures you can find.  Proceeds from the Best Used Book Sales will
be donated to the Sierra Made Public Library to support program and equipment
needs.  The library is located at 440 W.
Sierra Madre Blvd. in the city of Sierra Madre and there is parking on the
street and behind the library.  For more
