# Heh
Given it's Darwin's birthday this week, i've been handling the first edition of the origin lots at the moment, worth over £100,000, and was photographing some plates from some John Gould books valued at over a million a couple of weeks ago

no ordinary library ;)

Edit: And yes it is a bit like the library from the mummy at the beginning of the film, except the shelves don't fall over

Still, I hear identity theft is quite easy nowadays...

And hope you wore gloves when handling those books!

# Pizza?
Now you're just rubbing it in!
(The situation, that is, not the pizza)
