I thought I was just adding $1.50 to my shopping cart so I could qualify for Super Saver Shipping, but lo and behold, I received twelve Henry David Thoreau bookmarks with my order! What?! Crazy. It was seriously the best bonus ever. Thanks, Amazon. Thanks, Henry.

I really like my bookmarks. They came very quickly, with free shipping thru my Amazon Prime. They are very attractive. Some reviews on other similar bookmarks complain about the quality or the fact that you tear them off leaving perforations. The quality seems good to me, they are glossy, and substantial paper weight. If the perforations bother you so much just trim them off, there is plenty of room along the white border.

I find myself in disagreement with the reviewer who characterized the artwork on the Thoreau bookmarks as drab. I purchased an assortment of "books of bookmarks" by Dover for my book discussion group, but took only one of the Thoreau books to our dinner meeting-- and that was the one everyone wanted! The members loved the colors and the drawings, feeling them to be very natural in appearance. The bookmarks themselves are made of heavy stock but are easily removable from the booklet. The small perforations that are on one side when the bookmark is removed from the booklet can be trimmed off -- for slightly over $0.12 a bookmark I don't think you can go wrong with this purchase.
