Searching for Book - Sweet Recollections
 
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.

Thank you so much, Casey! I've never heard of this site, but I'm so intrigued! I'll try it now and will keep my fingers crossed. Thanks again!

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?
