Sylvester Stallone is selling a bunch of books from his library. Surprising number of classic books. I never know with celebrities if they are books they actually read, buy for collection status, buy for investment, or for decoration purposes. Since they are all basically matching set, so I'm tempted to think it was investment or decorating, but I could be wrong. Not sure if anyone is interested in added the books, it's interesting to see what was in Rocky's library nonetheless.

He's alive. Legacy libraries are for those that have died. The is an "other people's libraries" group.

Well, (somewhat) weirdly, we have made exceptions in the past for libraries sold at auction even during the owner's lifetime ... since it's a single and separate "library." So if people are keen to add these ...

ETA: with the other of these that I can recall, we had permission, so we should try for that if possible before adding.

I assumed the group was for cataloging famous people in all spheres of life. Clearly I offended by posting this topic and I am sorry for doing so. I have followed this group for several years and helped catalog libraries and did not know there was a separate one for living people.
