The E-Sylum:  Volume 5, Number 17, April 21, 2002, Article 6

LITTLE  "EXTRAS":

  Dan Gosling  writes "I continue to really enjoy the E-Sylum.
  GOOD WORK!

  Recently I purchased lot 791 in Kolbe's Sale 87 (March 22,
  2002) which included Trowbridge's 1970 "Crowns of the
  British Empire".  I noticed a spider's web inside the cirlox
  binding. On closer examination the web includes a perfectly
  preserved Spider.

  Does this increase the value of the book as it may be the only
  surviving example of a Spider from the library of John
  Davenport?  Is a Spider in the spine the same as a "fly on the
  wall"?  Have any of your other readers purchased items with
  'extras'?"
