The oldest book you have

prole-art-threat [Edit] [Delete] 10:41, 19 March '08

Well this is quite dull but the oldest book I have is actually from 1680, which is a book of all the villages and there parishes written on copper plate, and I got it from my granddad's study after he carked it and its origins were from an old Elizabethan manor house he was offered to buy in the 1950s but was deemed 'too creepy' by his wife, so he took the contents of the library instead and then it wsa knocked down. That's quite annoying as I'd have my own Baskerville Hall now. But anyway, what is the oldest book you have or family heirloom?
