Haven't been out in months so no real treasures to report. Yesterday while at the Goodwill I found the following book :

Gold Rush Album

Editor in Chief - Joseph Henry Jackson

The complete story of the greatest treasure hunt in history.

Charles Scribner's Sons Copyright 1949

I'm sure to treasure the book for a long time ... so that's my treasure of late.

Nothing wrong with that. We have to keep ourselves occupied for a few more weeks in the North.
 
Just found out it's a first edition as well so I suppose that's a plus. I'm itching to get back out there to the point I'm almost ready to go do some dirt cellars ...
 
Nice find :thumbsup:
Can i read it after you ;D

Darned nice find! What'd you give up for it if you don't mind me asking? Needless to say, some guys got the luck!!
 
A thousand different ways to hunt.

Happy Hunting. At good will.
 
For all us people in the northern area...

I checked the calender.....and " SPRING " is on the way......

But nice find...........you never know what you might find in those thrift stores..... :thumbsup:
 
I have to start going to the goodwill down the street. Problem is I would more than likely pass up the good stuff and bring home the junk.
