bidders note:
Our Bibles have in many cases lingered in different homes and surroundings, the odor of tobacco, dampness, dogs, cats, birds and human odors maybe present. Please do not bid on these old antiques if you have an allergy, sinus problem, or repugnance to the smell of OLD. We are sorry but many antique books are not pristine and nearly all of them have some type of odor.
