Thank you; that's a very very kind offer, but one I will decline owing to a large backlog of unread books. I've always enjoyed the marks of previous owners, whether a person or a library, on books, and I hope your patrons will too. Best wishes.
They do tell a story, it's true. Once I was offered the collection of a former kid who had handmade her own card pockets and range labels for her Animorphs books, and I almost wept over them, they were so adorable.

The marks show their history
I like buying books with marks and wear
