Spotted: Rare First Edition Laura Ingalls Wilder Books on Ebay

I'm always on the hunt for Laura Ingalls Wilder books and memorabilia - mostly books and photos of places she lived throughout her time. I also enjoy learning about the people Mrs. Wilder met throughout her life and travels. Sometimes I like to find older copies of Mrs. Wilder's books to give to friends, especially young people like my nieces. I look for books that are in good condition, but that are old enough to have character so that the recipients will treasure them for years to come and pass them down to their favorite young people. I was on Ebay yesterday seeing if there were any interesting bargains and I came across several First Edition copies of the "Little House" books. In fact, there were so many I did a search and went down a bit of a rabbit hole. Mind you, most of the books are too rich for my poor blood, but I find this to be a discussion-worthy topic so I'm sharing some finds and commentary with you here. You can see the complete results ...
