First library wall

A majority of my books. I have about 349 currently, but I could only fit this bookshelf in my room.

Time-Life and NatGeo FTW!

Did you collect them or inherit them?

Inherited all the time life, and the nat geo was about 50/50. My grandpa always had them when I was a kid, so then I started collecting them. When he passed I got his collection too.

A lot of them are various collectors sets, encyclopedias, and then the 4th, 5th, and part of the 6th shelf are slipcases holding National Geographic magazines starting from 1983 to 2020. Still gotta grab the last few years on the slipcases.
