library book returned 110 years after it was checked out

Here's an interesting story about how a Boise library book was returned 110 years after it was checked out. Librarians don't know who returned it. https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/29/us/library-book-returned-110-years-later-trnd/index.html This reminded me of news reports about  library books that were returned to West Germany after the Berlin Wall fell and the two Germanies reunited. People held onto them hoping for reunification and the chance to return the books and kept them safe for decades
