Holy Crapes, is that a complete collection of Nancy Drew books I see off to the right??? Kate, have you ever seen the original versions with the watercolor covers?

That's gotta be the neatest computer station I've ever seen. You get the Internationale Triple-Deluxe Neatness Computer Award, 1st Class for that desk.

It's an almost complete set Cammo. I lost several when the house got munched, and I'm still looking for one. Then I'll be back up to the original 56. (I also have the Nancy Drew Cookbook. :)) I have seen the originals which are awesome looking, but they were written in the late twenties and during the thirties, and I find the racial content a little disturbing for my personal taste. They updated them in the fifties, and those are far more sweet and palatable. (Yes, I do actually like to read all 56 every year or so.)

I cleaned up the desks for the pictures since those are the ones that I gave to OA for their book.
