Another surprising example of the theory that finds come in multiples! I've never had the opportunity to show an example of a Blenko bookend before this issue, and now exactly two months after finding my first set I've acquired a second. Sometimes this phenomenon happens when I first learn of an object, which makes sense, but in this case that isn't the situation. I've been searching for many unsuccessful years for Blenko bookends. I should track these things more closely to really study this theory. I'd love to hear from people with their feelings on the subject. Do you experience similar coincidences?
