ABOUT US

We buy and sell rare and antiquarian books, manuscripts, and ephemera online and by mail from our offices in Haddonfield, New Jersey.  

We keep a general stock, with volumes from the 1600s to the present.  However, we focus on 18th, 19th, and early 20th century English and American literature, architecture, decorative arts, private press books, signed and association copies, and authors' copies.

Each of our books have been carefully researched and cataloged and we are a proud member of the Independent Online Booksellers Association (IOBA) and abide by their rigorous guidelines.  We are also members of the Bibliographical Society of America and the Ticknor Society.
