Just wanted to let you know that I got your name off an envelope from July 1939. Your store looks wonderful and very cozy. I live in McDonough,Georgia and at 71 I will probably not get to visit. But what a store!
Hello from England. I received the book today, and just wanted you to know that I'm really happy with it -- its condition is really amazing, and a lot better than I had hoped. It also happens to be a really excellent book, which helps. I also wanted to say thanks for the great packaging: it's surprisingly often that companies don't pack their books properly and they end up getting damaged during the shipping process! Kind regards,
