dictionaries

I collect old dictionaries. Books from pre-spell-check days.

I especially am drawn to old tattered, well used copies with the thumb indents along the edge or fancy colored page edges, and also old illustrated children's editions. There is something about the soothing colors in the old illustrations. My buying rule is that it can't cost more than 50 cents!! Some of my favorites are throw-aways from people who love computers more than books.

What do you collect from pre-computer days?
