Subject:Mystery scrolls in leather wrap help request.
Posted By: Spartakos Sat, Jun 30, 2018 IP: 49.49.238.54

A rather unusual item was offered to me, something that looks like Chinese stack of scrolls in old looking leather wrap. There is no way I could inspect what it contains but maybe there is an indication om what is inside. Thank you.
