judge a book by it's cover???

OF COURSE!
Look at these beautiful pieces of art that I scored at the Goodwill for just $2.99 each ,over the weekend. I mean really?
Why wouldn't we judge a book by it's cover?

Of course only being in my 20's these were so fabulous to me. However, mom passed them right up and muttered

"oh, those old Reader's Digest books....."

as she shrugged her shoulders like she often does when I find some little treasure (that she usually had in her house growing up).

The disappointing thing was, they were totally covered with aged- Readers Digest covers! I rescued these gems from torture!
