So I was doing a search online for this book we got in at work the other day, and I came across this:

TROTZKY, (Leon). .THE BOLSHEVIKI AND WORLD PEACE. Introduction by Lincoln Steffens.
NY: Boni and Liveright, 1918. First US edition. Hardcover. Blue cloth lettered in red. 238 pp + frontispiece portrait. Spine slightly darkened with red lettering faint; light damp spots to covers, mainly at the margins; ink name, small rubber stamp, and red ink note, at top margin of front free endpaper; rubber stamp to rear free endpaper and top margin of several pages; text paper yellowed; else a good, tight and unworn copy.

USD 15.00 > other currencies ordernr.: 21874 bookseller: Steven Temple Books (CANADA)

Steven Temple Books is a hop skip and a jump from where I used to live in Toronto.
So, I fire up the IM with one of my Toronto lackies and BAM, I have a book waiting to be shipped to me.

I am so very, very, very excited. You can't even believe how excited I am at this moment.

1. Good work, comrade.

A first edition, eh?

[GirlinContempt]

2. It'll fit right in the space next to my

first edition of Trotskys History of the Russian Revolution (First english printing. I was so excited to snag that)

EDIT
Who am I fucking kidding, I have no space for books anywhere. I still buy them constantly, but, yeah.

4. I'd rather have the History in Russian.

Not that I could read it, but it would be cooler.

Poseur.

We all know that Marx and Engels were both fans of plugs.

25. Thank you, thank you

It's a turning point in every young ladies life.
Scanning the offerings, eyes lighting up over some particularly delectable specimen, the discreet exchange of currency, and then a little alone time. A slow, probing push, that new new feeling as your purchase takes over your being, and you sink into an oblivion of pleasure with your find.
