LOT SET CONCISE ENCYCLOPEDIA FIRST EDITION LIBRARY 1937

Vintage 1921 American Educator Encyclopedia complete

It has nothing to do with "Call of Cthulhu", but if money were no object I would snap up this 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica in a heartbeat. It's notable for being the last edition with meticulously detailed articles by experts, including descriptions and instructions for almost every known chemical, industrial, and mechanical innovation and process known at the time. It's frequently cited as the most valuable collection of knowledge ever assembled. With it you could rebuild civilization from scratch if and when TEOTWAWKI (the end of the world as we know it) arrives.
