Foxtower | 38 comments The following may not be a book even though it has an isbn number.... it seems to refer to the series itself (Time Life Home Repair and Improvement). Home Repair and Improvement

All 44 other books in the series are accounted for and verified (plus three not in goodreads)

My searches elsewhere did not find an actual book with that isbn... (more experienced librarians may find it... you guys always amaze me!)

Maybe it's an index to the original 19 volumes?

This may be a non-issue... maybe I'm just being picky.... if so just ignore this message....

thanks!

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments It's almost certainly a not-a-book promotional item associated with the series -- one used book seller has it as a dumpbin, which is a kind of display shelf -- but unfortunately it's generally impossible to verify that sort of thing once the publisher stops selling the promotional items.

Maybe someone else's google-fu will be stronger than mine, though. :)

Foxtower | 38 comments Thanks Cait! It may just sit there, like incorrect information on an insurance company database, until the end of time...

(gotta love computers.. they refuse to forget!)
