For 51 years, two books checked out from a high school library in Phoenix, Ariz., went unreturned. This week, those two books were returned along with a letter of explanation and a money order for $1,000.
The two Audubon Society books were checked out from the Camelback High School library in 1959. The letter explained that the borrower’s family moved to a new city and the books were mistakenly packed. The $1,000 was sent to cover late charges.
omg thats hilarious
$1,000! they must have been some good books to wait 51 years!
that’s crazy, why didn’t he send them back earlier.
That’s kind of weird. At least they paid for the books.
OK that’s freaky

Better not let THAT happen again.
Wow… That must have been a surprise for them seeing the books 51 years later.
Why did he return them?
