Ouch!
This is what happens to books when they get wet :(
Not just the bottom spine got wet:
Tomorrow's DOTD?! Can you guess what series the blue one is in?
I assume an expensive one?
ReplyDeleteI hate it when books get wet! They are such good friends, and I hate seeing them ruined. Was it a roof leak?
ReplyDeleteAnchor Bible Commentary - OT series
ReplyDeleteJose & Brian, Yes,it was an Anchor Bible OT commentary. Retail was over $50 each.
ReplyDeleteLonnie,
The overstock was stored on the floor, by the wall and some moisture leaked through...I'm glad we only lost 5 books!
