    We took most to the dump, sold some of the old ones on ebay and made alot of money, and kept a few.

    I gave my collection of bound volumes to a zealous brother who was very new and trying to build his library. The "Aid Book" and some other large volumes were sold to a local used bookstore. The rest was discarded.

    I still have them and don't plan on getting rid of them. I have a personal library that any congregation would be proud to have. My books go all the way back to CTR. Recently my daughter-in-law (the one who has had me banned from her house) tried to get my wife to donate them to a congregation (that ought to tell you just how extensive that collection is), but I'd rather keep them for critical research.

    Forscher,

    I take it your daughter-in-law doesn't consider you the head of your house and the owner of those books?

    I have quite a few from the CTR era. I would like to get copies of the Golden Age and Consolation even if they are just reprints.
