Books always smelled like dust to me. That is the smell I imagine whenever I'm reading and the story's characters go into a crypt.
Now, give me a nice stack of freshly mimeographed quizzes, and I'll try to inhale them in one big sniff. I used to love that smell! (Perhaps that explains my disappearing memory of late?)

I thought the mimeograph machines had become obsolete, but the school where I was a substitute teacher recently still used one! I couldn't believe how the smell took me back to elementary school and some of the best (and worst) memories of my early life. It's amazing what the sense of smell can evoke.
And Dixie, I am pretty sure the fumes didn't destroy very many of your brain cells..., uh, where was I??... oh, well, uh, never mind.
