These are fabulous - to read AND look at. I once found Mrs. Kennedy's White House Tour guide for sale in an old shop for a $1! It's charmingly written and illustrated. She had good taste in all things.
Thanks for sharing!

These books are soooo special! I may need three jobs to collect the wonderful art, books, etc that keep popping up on my list.
Skyla -- what a find! Thanks for sharing.
Karena -- it is fun to collect books over time, build a library.
What a great find!!! I never knew of that site before. It's real treasure trove. Many thanks!
Sweet Life -- Enjoy!
i have watched her tour of the white house on youtube before. she's so graceful and beautiful with impeccable taste!~
You have an incredible site, it's funny that I found it while visiting a friend's site in France. C'est la vie. I'm very new to this blogging world and it continues to amaze me.
