Over mijn bibliotheek
Hundreds of dictionaries in many languages; some 2,000 books about all types of maledicta in many languages; scholarly library of German literature and language from the Middle Ages to Present; most books by Elias Petropoulos and Gershon Legman (all autographed); linguistics; philology; Bavarian, etc. All books to be sold before I die.

In addition, I have at least 15,000 clippings, photocopies, dissertations, offprints and more about maledicta ("bad words") in many languages; collection started around 1965 and ongoing.
