Store Description

Since 1977 The Odd Book has bought and sold interesting books and ephemera... and some apparently not that interesting. We're a member of the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of Canada, and thereby affiliated with the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. At the store in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, and online since '98, Jim Tillotson (founder) and Jim Gow (proprietor) combine their years of experience and occasional stupidity to provide a pretty good place to browse. Thanks for stopping by, and don't hesitate to be in touch.
