November 20, 2024: New Arrivals
It has been a busy time for us since our last mailing. Susan and I attended the ILAB (International League of Antiquarian Booksellers) conference in Amsterdam, where we saw all sorts of interesting items, sites, and museums in the company of colleagues from around the world. Shortly after returning we exhibited at the Boston ABAA book fair. We are back to cataloging in high gear, and this mailing highlights a number of sf and fantasy art books and a few items of fan interest. A good number of items have been added to the website, so please check them out. Next week we will highlight Arkham House books from the Bob Madle collection.
