A library book that had been overdue for 47 years in Minnesota had been finally returned. Called "Chilton's Foreign Car Repair Manual," the book contained a written letter and a donation.

A few months later I moved and apparently the book got packed up in the move. Forty-seven years later I found it … in a trunk with other interesting things from the ‘70s. It’s a little overdue but I thought you might want it back. My apologies to anyone in Lake Elm who was working on an old Benz in the last 47 years."
