No way to tell but I wonder if it was posed or accidental?
I like his shoes and socks.

Very much posed as they were the actual models for American Gothic.

Since then I have lived in Georgia and the local libraries are not interested and the schools have to see if they are approved.

Sad. County library here loves to take donations either to buy new books, but they were running a used book sale 3-4 times a year -- 3 days of packed rooms full of books and people and the proceeds all going to support the library. Not having that income has severely impacted their new book buying budget.

Whenever schools have to approve books is when this country is on a seriously bad path.

Bucks county stopped book donation/sales due to covid

I can understand that but I'm talking about the last 20 years.

My problem is that I just hate to throw good books away.
Our local auction house is not taking consignments at this time.

I have several boxes of books to donate stored now. They sit very quietly and do not intrude so I'm fine with their waiting for their time to depart.

Sally Army has chosen not to except books for the time being. Volunteers of America is still accepting hard bound books and some other things Sally Army isn't. Local Goodwill drop point has insanely weird hours so I don't know what they are doing. Last time I tried to stop by they had two conflicting signs in the window and a sandwich board out front that looked like a set piece from a Saturday Night Live skit with four lines of contradictory information and two were crossed out?

It's a moving target everywhere while folks try to do anything to gain some footing towards an operational position.

I might try selling books on eBay along with the millions of others there; it's work but with low pricing the base objective of making things go away can be met.

What a ruination of a good book!

I've read SEVERAL novels where that treatment would be an improvement!

Haven't you ever seen "claw foot" furniture? Very common at one time.
