Store description
The Abaúj Antique Bookshop which was founded in 1996 is one of the most significant representatives of the Hungarian second-hand book trade. The second-hand bookshop I lead organizes numerous book auctions year by year in Budapest. I make a catalogue out of the most unique themes every summer. My favourites are autographed books and manuscripts. Autographed books and manuscripts of internationally-recognised writers, poets, historical figures and celebrities can be found in my collection. You cannot even imagine how many rare books and manuscripts can be found in Central Europe! I have created the abaujantique.com website in order to make the world aware of us and get to know us. I would like to get to know your interests and add rare items to your collection. Kind Regards from a booklover, János Pogány…
