About Prying1 Books

We have a wide selection of books that we are ssllllooowwwlly listing online. Both at prying1books.com and prying1 on eBay.

Our goal is to find homes for an eclectic collection of books most of which came from Dion O'Donnol's estate. He passed away at the age of 95 and during his life collected them from many different directions. Plus we have an idea that, as his friends pre-deceased him, he would glom onto their books too. Some of them are scarce and some rare. We have found items that don't even register on the web. Some that do but few copies are available. One that Dion printed (He owned a small printshop/publishing house - Wagon and Star) was purchased from us by the Smithsonian. Our claim to fame!

On our eBay page - http://stores.ebay.com/prying1 - there is a newsletter link where you can get newsletters once a week or so showing the new listings. You can sign off of receiving them as easily as logging on so don't feel like you are going to get spammed. - At this point we have no other newsletters that we send out although we might communicate with you if we find something you have inquired about...

We invite you to check out - Prying1books.com - & - Prying1 on eBay - for some good deals.

Also... You might notice that the third person pronouns, we & us and such, are used in this blog as well as listings. This is because we heard that it makes it sound like we have a big organization behind us. Well, The name prying1 comes from MY 3 initials and the first 3 letters of the town I live in. There is really only one of me. (Smiley face here) If Bob Dole can get away with it we figure we can too.
