About this seller

I have been a nearly full time bookseller since the mid 2000s working from home in Bristol. I concentrate on books on transport (mainly railways), industrial history, maritime, topography, the Beatles & other groups from the 1960s and interesting ephemera. I particularly specialise in official publicity of the British railway companies. I issue occasional catalogues in advance of book fairs and of Great Western Railway publicity. I keep a modest stock of quality material which is constantly changing. I am a member of the Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association and I regularly exhibit at PBFA fairs and railway collectors' fairs. I sell on ABE and also on eBay under the moniker 'mr.publicity' - I usually have 50 or so auctions of books and ephemera running at any one time. I travel far and wide to view and buy stock so please contact me if you have material for sale!
