Old Books

I'm a collector.  I love the idea that some wayward individual sat around by candlelight, in 1700's England, France or other, reading the same book I now hold.  Unfortunately, the years have not been good to many collections.  Case in point:  Do any of you out in blogland happen to have the latter two volumes of this set?  I acquired the first and second volume at a flea market of sorts on the outskirts of Berlin some years ago.  Without them I'll never now how the story ends...
Cervantes- Don Quixote, pub. 1782
