Sometimes opening the cardboard boxes dropped off at the drive-through book collection is like busting into a Kinder Surprise.

No brass knuckles. No FBI fingerprint kit. No stash of weed in a hollowed-out copy of Exploring the Ocean World.

This year? Well, volunteer Stedes Heibey stumbled upon a script for the classic 1980s television drama Hill Street Blues, co-written by creator Steven Bochko and dated a year before the series debuted. There was also a 1971 script for the TV show Kung Fu. • Many variations on Fifty Shades of Grey, including the parody Fifty Shames of Earl Grey and the cookbook Fifty Shades of Chicken, its cover featuring a photo of trussed-up poultry

• The sale’s splendid Canadiana section includes sub-categories for Vancouver Island and Victoria titles, including Ms. Stinky Does Esquimalt.
