As previously mentioned, I’ve been entrusted with a bountiful collection of tins, ranging from a few to 7 years old. My task is to give them away This is the final of three week long contests. Read the rules, have fun, and if you see Al (aka Bull) around the forum, make sure to say “Thank you” for his generous donation to the pipe side of Cigar Bum!

1. Contest begins now and end Wednesday, July 8th @ 2359 EST.
2. You may enter once per day, with midnight being the reset time. This means you can, in theory, enter the contest 8 times.
3. The winner will be selected from all qualifying posts, using a random number generator.
4. To qualify, your post must be made during the appropriate time frame, and include the requested content for the specific contest. All other posts will be disregarded.

This week’s qualifying content is:
My four year old gave me the idea for this week’s contest. We were sitting in my study and he asked “Daddy, how many books do you have? You have a lot!”
So your entry post this week will include TWO things:

1) A guess at the number of books in my personal library.
2) A picture of a book that you would recommend someone else read.

EXAMPLE:

1) 1,482,291
2)

The winner will be selected at random, BUT if anyone gets within 25 books of the actual number…there will be a special prize awarded to that person.
