When you really want the internet, but the internet doesn’t exit yet. I wonder how many services like this existed. The old Netflix (Qwikster, heh) is maybe the most famous one?

Throwback to me sneaking in signatures into my books! Signing the books after they’re assembled and packed is a logistical nightmare (you don’t want to have to repack and reship books at your home), and I find bookplates to be clumsy… …but @Glenn Fleishman had this great idea of signing a 100 books in advance at the printer’s, when they were still uncut signatures – so some people would be get a nice surprise. Even bought super nice pens just for that occasion. It was a fun moment.
