SMELLY BOOKS

  Jeff Hawk writes: "I got your address off the NBS website. I
  recently purchased on eBay a catalog from an auction in 1986.
  The catalog smells VERY musty, and is all but unusable.  Is
  there anything I can do to improve the smell of this book?
  Thank you very much for any help you can give me, either
  yourself or from the NBS membership."

  [Putting the book into a bag with baking soda may help.
  Letting it bake out in the fresh air and sun is another tactic
  I've heard of.   What else do our readers recommend?
