Re: [TIrpg] Chambers's Encyclopedia of Universal Knowledge

Many thanks, Jonathan. Looks interesting.

I remember once, a few years back, I started bidding on Ebay on a
complete set of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, which is apparently
an iconic edition. When it reached about $100 and I was in the lead, I
naively started rubbing my hands together and thinking about where I
would store the monster. Well, needless to say, people started in and
the thing sold for closer to $1000. There is an online version, though,
with is riddled with typos from scanning, but still well worth the
time:

Thanks again for sending the link!
