Store description
We are an online bookstore which grew out of a passion for books, reading and collecting. We began trading in1999 and have had an online presence for the majority of the intervening years. Our aim is to offer the less common publications with an emphasis on Signed, Numbered and Limited editions. Initially we concentrated on Modern First Editions but soon broadened our horizons in all directions. As well as reference books we have a large number of London Auction Catalogues, Exhibition Catalogues and fair few Works of Art which we intend to include in our listings... eventually. We have recently returned to Abe after another project took us in a different direction for a few years and are slowly going through our stock which has been exciting in itself as everything has been in sleeping quietly in storage for those years. We hope you can find something of interest and will do our best to answer any questions you might have.…
