Store description

In addition to a large collections of 19th century children’s books, and adult fiction we have a broad array of art books, reference materials, religion and philosophy. Lately I have been cataloguing 19th century travelogues.

 Also available is a large collection of 19th century and early 20th century periodicals, some bound, some still in their original condition: The Atlantic Monthly, Harper’s, The Century Illustrated, Lippincott’s, Putnam, The North American Review, Scribner’s, St. Nicholas Magazine. Many are not yet listed so inquiries for specific editions are welcomed. Publication dates tend to run from about 1780 to about 1960.
