i'm thinking in a week or two, when i have a little money to spare, i'm going to pick some of them up and relive some of my childhood memories ... and then critically examine them and raise all sorts of questions about how it worked ...

i mean, seriously, these were late teens / early 20s guys solving mysteries in their spare time away from school ,,, and doing it quicker than a pack of kids in a Mystery Machine... how did they ever find time to go to school or pay for all of their travels? (besides their dad, of course)

check yard sales first as used book stores can super overprice them -- nm - Beaker May 30, 15:30 1
- Or Friends of the Library bookstores. Our kids books are all 25-cents. -- nm - Meg May 30, 15:40
I assume most used book stores - and donation places like Goodwill - probably have a ton of old Hardy Boys books. -- nm - Mop May 30, 14:05
