Store description
Stellar Books & Ephemera specializes in unique items of Americana often known as one-offs--manuscripts, letters, diaries, photography material, letter-press publications, and broadsides, plus whatever fun books make their way into inventory. I spent 18 years building a rare book department at Back of Beyond Books in Moab, Utah and sold that business in May 2022.
