Stellar Books & Ephemera

44 New Ephemeral & Unique Items from Stellar Books & Ephemera

Our last list for 2023 features a variety of fun items including several presidential signatures, a handful of signed letters, some Californiana, a couple Asian prints, a grouping of very early Austin Nevada telegrams, several nice pamphlets, an early article about Jackie Robinson, 2 exceptional photo albums and a nicely inscribed copy of "84 Charing Cross Road" and more.  The list concludes with twelve somewhat scarce signed, limited editions from the eccentric polymath Denver physician Nolie Mumey.

Give me a call or e-mail to reserve items.  [email protected] or 435-260-8596

We thank you for your continued patronage in 2023 and wish you a healthy and peaceful holiday season.
