<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SBSVC, post: 208557, member: 136&quot;]Carrie, I&#039;m sorry, but yours sound as if they&#039;re pretty well gone... If a mouse has been at them, I would just put them out with the recycling. (Mind you, that&#039;s just me, but sometimes, some of us simply need reassurance that it&#039;s okay just to throw old stuff away!)</p><p><br /></p><p>A couple of years ago, when I was trying very hard to downsize, I had quite a few of these recipe booklets and folders (more than a hundred, actually) that had belonged to my grandmother. They really were in pretty decent shape, but there just wasn&#039;t much of a demand for them. (Jell-o recipes, anyone? How about a nice Campbell&#039;s soup casserole?) </p><p><br /></p><p>In the end, I sold them for pennies (along with about 50 &quot;real&quot; cookbooks) to an online book seller. (Had they been in tough shape, he wouldn&#039;t have wanted them at all - at any price.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, if there&#039;s anything really unusual among the war-time stuff, post it here for opinions. (Otherwise, you have <i>my</i> permission to let it go!)</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, Carrie, I <i>am</i> kidding (sort of) but you seem to have SO much stuff to go thru, and this may be the time for you to &quot;choose your battles&quot;, so to speak...</p><p><br /></p><p>Wishing you all the very best,</p><p>-C-[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
