Store Description

Our business is by correspondence. We exhibit at International Fairs. Apart from our specialist fields, we offer subject collections. Recent collections sold have been on Cervantes, Jorge Luis Borges, Horsemanship and early Anatomy. We have a small stock of prints, watercolours and photographs. Catalogues on various topics are issued about twice a year. In September 2002 we published 'COFFEE: A Bibliography. A Guide to the Literature on Coffee'. It is the first modern comprehensive bibliography on the subject and has been compiled over a number of years by ourselves with help from leading experts in their fields.
