Now I'm reminded again of that old New Yorker cartoon. Man and

Every wall in every room is lined with bookcases. The man says

Oh! I wish I had a copy of that! Maybe I can find it in a book
on same. Isn't there a complete collection of cartoons?

I think there is, or was, a specific collection of NY cartoons
about books. I think I have, not the book itself, but a
photocopy of it somewhere ... somewhere in the 150 or so boxes
of books in the storage compartment....

It *may* be this one.....

But I'm not sure.

Hmmm. 1 cent on amazon. I didn't inspect further. Yet.

Your book boxes sounds about like mine. But I have a sad tale of
woe. I think my some of the books I had in storage disappeared.
At least they haven't emerged. I am extremely unhappy about that.

Mine can't emerge or disappear either. They're all the way at
the back of the storage unit, with only the videotapes in deeper.
Incredible quantities of STUFF would have to be shifted to get at
them. (Including thirty-some bookcases.)
