The Vintage Bookshelf

The Vintage Bookshelf Welcome to The Vintage Book Shelf, where the books of yesteryear come alive again. My passion for reading has continued! S. for an additional charge. Katie Grace

I am a retired library associate from a K-5 school who fell in love with children's literature not as a child, but when my own children were young. I can ship via cost-effective media mail in the U. If you'd like insurance for your package, please LET ME KNOW BEFORE you pay as there will be an additional small charge. I accept PayPal for your convenience. The Vintage Bookshelf Terms of Sale—PLEASE

READ ALL BEFORE PURCHASE:
*Vintage Bookshelf does its best to be honest in the description of the books for sale. I consider a book to be vintage if it is 20 years or older, though most of the books I carry are older than that. Occasionally I may offer a non-vintage book that I feel will appeal to my buyers; if so, it will be clearly marked. Please rely on photos and descriptions. Ask for additional information and/or photos if necessary before purchase. ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
*My books are stored and shipped from a smoke-free, cat-friendly home, however since these are vintage books, I have no way of knowing the past storage conditions.
*Shipping will be by USPS Media Mail unless specified and additional services are payed for before shipping. Media Mail provides for tracking services but not insurance. Shipping choice is up to the buyer and seller is released from responsibility once package is shipped. By finalizing payment with The Vintage Book Shelf, you are agreeing to these terms. If you also enjoy modern reading, take a hop over to my Katie Grace Book Bliss page and take a look! Happy reading! https://www.facebook.com/katiegracebookjoy
