Store description
In 1991, I turned my passion for rare books into a business, and have been a book dealer ever since. My stock includes an eclectic mix in such areas as architecture, art, children's literature (including Lewis Carroll), fashion, Judaica, performing arts, photography, etc. Only a small portion of my inventory is online. If there is anything on your wish list that you don't see, contact me and I'll see if I can help.
