From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2019-01-26:
"An older woman, probably in her late seventies, came in with a bag of books to sell. They were all erotica, and all photographic books from the 1960s. I checked one or two of them and they were reasonably valuable, so I gave her [50 pounds] for them. Just before she left she picked one of the books up and said, 'See if you can work out which of the models in this book is me.'" -- Shaun Bythell, from the August 27 entry in his memoir, The Diary Of A Bookseller.
