Hi, all! I am on the hunt for a copy of Erik Varon's book Sweet Recollections: The Story of the Philadelphia Caramel Company of Camden, New Jersey. I found a thread on the forum from 2015 that leads me to believe many (if not all) existing copies of the book have found a home, so I certainly understand if I've hit a dead end. My uncle (historian by day, avid baseball card collector by night) has included this book on his Christmas list every year, and every year I attempt a search. Somehow I discovered the post from 2015 today and thought it might be worth a shot to reach out. Any advice is much appreciated, and if anyone is willing to part with their copy of the book, I would be happy to pay immediately via PayPal, Venmo, or a check in the mail.
Thanks, everyone! :)
Good luck., Lara. As I said on the phone the only one I have located is a personalized one to me, from Eric.
With a little luck you might find one and this is a good place to ask.

You might want try Alibris book fetch. They don't have a copy on their website but have a tool that will search for the book and let you know if they find one. Good luck.

I can help. I will put my copy in the mail gratis. The best Christmas gifts are the ones that someone put a lot of thought into locating something on the recipient's wish list. :)
PM me your shipping information and I will drop it in the mail either Thursday or Friday.

Very nice Eddie. This actually was a ray of light in a really crappy year. Christmas miracles still happen.

Very cool! Brightened my day for sure :)
What's the deal regarding the rarity of the book? Can no more be made?
