An album of bookmarks

Since I was on the subject of odd things I have used for bookmarks, I thought I would share photos of some of real bookmarks that I picked up on my Grand Southern Literary Tour in May. 

I know they run over the margins, but if I didn't make the photos X-Large, you wouldn't be able to see any detail. My apologies.

Eudora Welty books all in a row

This first comes from Eudora Welty's house in Jackson, Miss. It is difficult to see, but photo is of the spines of her books. They look so pretty sitting all together, don't they. 

Square Books time three

The one above shows all three bookstores run by Square Books in Oxford, Miss. From Left to right: Square Books Jr., Square Books (the main store) and Off Square Books.

All are on the town square. One doesn't need to be anywhere else.

Lemuria Books

These three are from Lemuria Books also in Jackson, Miss. One of the clerks that I spoke with remembered when Ms. Welty used to shop at the store. Talk about making a bookseller's  day...
