Talk Thomas Y Crowell Co.,

I have in my possession a book of Moore Poems, given to my grandfather in 1883. It was published by Crowell & Co. However the first few pages are missing, the publishing information and up to and including page 6 of the index. Is there somewhere I can find when this was published and perhaps get the missing pages. 67.71.92.200 (talk) 16:51, 7 October 2009 (UTC) Lee Anne Bean, Kanata, Ontario, Canada, K2M 2N9 leeannebean@sympatico.ca

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

I found this book from an Estate Sale and can not find a date or author anywhere. It's cover is almost that of a cow hide, brown with gold letters "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". The first 3 pages are blank. The first page with writing says "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" from the sketch book of Washington Irving. Then says New York Thomas Y. Crowell & Company Publishers. The pages are very old and seem to be serrated edges like it was not evenly cut. Not sure if someone made this book on their own or what. I can't seem to find anything online or through my research. Hoping someone can help me out :) Please email any information that may help me! Thanks kindly, Laura princessmoejo143@yahoo.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.170.3.91 (talk) 02:34, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
