See a pin and pick it up, All the day you'll have good luck; See a pin and let it lay, Bad luck you'll have all the day.
We found this corroding straight pin in the gutter of our 1616 Ben Jonson book, The Alchemist. The binding of the book is relatively new so the pin is not contemporary to the publication and since the green corrosion was rubbing off onto the paper we decided to remove (but keep) the pin. A journey down the internet rabbit hole of straight pin history informs me that the pin is probably a copper alloy lending to the light green corrosion. Before the 20th century pins were broadly used by men and women to secure clothes, hats, wigs, and paper items. They could be costly so were highly valued, leading people to save up their “pin money”.Â
I’m stumped about the age of this pin, if it was used in the binding process, fell out of a reader’s clothing, etc. Why would it be just laying in the gutter of this book, any ideas?Â
Found in a book, this 1876 partial letter to “Aunt Mary” details a whale carcass viewing in Beer in southwest England. The letter states that the whale was found floating and brought to shore by fishermen, then “proprietors” fixed an “avenue of brown sails” around the whale so that only those who paid could get in to view. It goes on to say that “Thomas, the chandler in Exeter has purchased the carcass; so we shall have a chance of some real”....... unfortunately, the letter ends abruptly so we don’t know exactly what the writer was hoping to have a chance at. A chandler was a candle maker and household goods seller of oil, soap, and such items so I imagine the writer is referring to the chance of obtaining real whale oil products, maybe.Â
Found in: The anatomy of plants : with An idea of a philosophical history of plants; and Several other lectures read before the Royal Society (1682) / by Nehemiah Grew.   Â

Found in a book, I think this might inspire Roundabout’s future offices. Favorite features: “moat, 4 feet deep,” the runway flanked by “marble columns” each side starting with a “plant,” the “high back chair with hydraulic lift,” and, finally, “my awesome huge 10 ft tall desk.” #roundaboutbooks #dreamoffice #foundinabook #foundwithinthepages https://www.instagram.com/p/B9FeNtSBpJ0/?igshid=zfa36hs90m2t
