$80,000 Book

How incredible is this: Indiana soldier's rare `Federalist' copy nets $80K? I have to say, with my love for our country's rich history, I would have been tempted to keep it. Then again, that's a nice chunk of change.

And kudos to Heritage Auction Galleries for waiving it's 20% commission.

I guess I'll keep collecting fun old books. You just never know what I'll run across... or what's sitting in my library already. Hee-hee.
