[Rarebooks] [INFO] New Gravestone, Mourning, Epitaph Catalog

[Joslin Hall Rare Books, ABAA]

The old saying is that you're not supposed to whistle in a graveyard, but
the Book Elves were never ones for old sayings, even though whenever they
whistle the Colonel Bogey March in unison every dog in the neighborhood
starts howling.

They haven't been whistling in graveyards though, ever since last
Halloween when they had a little too much hard cider and were using a
shortcut through the town's 17th century burial ground, where old Len
Anderson and his boy scout troop were waiting for them, hiding behind the
gravestones with sheets and plastic pumpkins with those glowing red
eyes...

But after they recovered from doing the 500-yard dash home in 17.6 seconds
flat (and got even with Len at Christmas by putting live squirrels in his
Christmas tree) they finished a new edition of our 'GRAVE MATTERS'
newsletter, featuring recent acquisitions since our last GRAVE AFFAIR
catalog. This issue includes books and other materials on mourning,
graveyards, epitaphs and related subjects.

We have printed copies available, or you can browse a fully-illustrated
