A group of people on LibraryThing have been discussing strange "bookmarks" - various items left in library books and second-hand books, for some years now. Here are some of my favourites: ◊ A lock of hair in a tiny envelope. ◊ Hair extensions. ◊ Toe-nail clippings. ◊ A fake nail. ◊ A used q-tip (aka cotton bud or ear bud). ◊ A threaded needle. ◊ A mouldy flattened pancake. ◊ A Jacob's Cream Cracker. ◊ A desiccated baby rattlesnake. ◊ 46 four-leaf clovers pressed flat between the pages. ◊ $700 in seven crisp one-hundred-dollar bills. ◊ An old and dusty rolled joint, in a book about Woodstock. ◊An 'Abductees Anonymous' (a support group for people who have been abducted by aliens) card with contact numbers. |
