So this was mentioned in Oddee’s list of the 20 Most Amazing Coincidences:
While American novelist Anne Parrish was browsing bookstores in Paris in the 1920s, she came upon a book that was one of her childhood favorites - Jack Frost and Other Stories. She picked up the old book and showed it to her husband, telling him of the book she fondly remembered as a child. Her husband took the book, opened it, and on the flyleaf found the inscription: “Anne Parrish, 209 N. Weber Street, Colorado Springs.” It was Anne’s very own book.

The further coincidence is that it’s a parking lot now, just like every other historic landmark in downtown Springs, and is two blocks from our office! Spooooooky!
