Store description
I started this business under my own name, Vincent G. Barlow, in 1981 although I have been dealing since the late 1960's. My stock is composed mainly of illustrated books but I have decided to concentrate on graphic art and books illustrated with original prints on my website. As well as supplying the trade, private customers and collectors over the years, I have also sold works on paper to private and public institutions, most recently to The Victoria & Albert Museum, London, The State Library of Victoria and the Baillieu Library, The University of Melbourne, Australia. The authenticity of all items offered for sale is fully guaranteed. Should you require futher information please do not hesitate to ask. I hope that you will find something of interest and thank you for visiting. Vincent G. Barlow.…
