Store description
A passionate quest to attain upscale books is my favorite hobby. 30 years of collecting choice editions and with a couple of open bookshops over the years has allowed me to gather a significant treasure trove that Wax Orchard Media will be offering for sale to the general public. Professional cataloguing, description of condition, and loving packaging is of utmost importance to us. A special emphasis on signed copies, sci-fi/fantasy, limited editions, illustrations, poetry, and anything underground. Wax Orchard Media will be cataloguing a few thousand books over the next year or two so browse often. Happy hunting, KC…
