Used New York State Book Collection

Every once in a while I get a chance to buy a collection of books, more rarely one in my field - New York history & genealogy. Well, on a recent Sunday, after agravating my herniated disks (3!) shoveling icy snow, I bought 20 boxes of an Albany resident's books. It was a great (if painful) expedition, and the books are mostly the reprint titles I sell everyday, but - thanks to a few gems, and a pharmaecopia of drugs - I will survive both physically and financially. I started to list them on my OP Book Page (I don't do booksites like Alibris or ABE) so you can check them out if you are looking for used New York books.
