And in other news, fellow bookseller Michael Lieberman of Wessel and Lieberman has invited me to be a regular contributor on his blog, […]

Last month, colleague Ken Lopez and I handled a rare and important archive of original collages and photographs by/from Naked Lunch author William S. Burroughs. Jed Birmingham, who writes the Bibliographic Bunker column for the WSB site RealityStudio, asked if I would answer some questions about the collection and other related topics. The […]

The Charlie Chaplin Book
May 2nd, 2008 · No Comments
I’m starting a new feature today, a kind of experiment. Regularly (maybe a couple of times a week), I’ll highlight a recent acquisition, one that is interesting or unusual in some respect. For awhile now, I’ve been meaning to shine a light on some of the more fascinating books that cross my desk, […]

I’d wanted to post about the SF Book Fair (and still plan to), but between unpacking from the fair and preparing the new catalog for mailing, there just hasn’t been time. Speaking of which, I’m pleased to officially announce that Catalog No. Two is ready in both PDF or printed format. Highlights include:
- […]

Do you recognize anyone in this picture…
October 3rd, 2007 · No Comments
This picture [click for full-size] was taken at the Metropole nightclub in New York City circa 1959. That’s about all I can say about this photo with much confidence. For reasons rather too convoluted to explain here but related to an archive I’m currently cataloging, I’m trying to identify the people […]

Vacation
June 15th, 2007 · No Comments
I’ll be heading back east for a couple of weeks. The family and I will be taking some much needed R&R and helping to celebrate my father’s retirement. I have a bit of book business to take care of over a couple of days in NYC. And perhaps I’ll get some scouting […]

Chirp…chirp…chirp…
May 9th, 2007 · 1 Comment
Those crickets you’ve been hearing around here are due to the fact that I’ve been busy finishing up my first catalog (just back from the printers). Tonight the wife and I (with our daughter putting on the stamps) will be busy sealing them up and putting on address labels. Should all be in […]

Another Book Blog?
January 27th, 2007 · 2 Comments
Booksellers are largely Luddite in nature. Most have, therefore, only recently come to blogging. That said, the last year has seen a (relative) explosion of bookselling blogs: from J Godsey’s link-heavy Bibliophile Bullpen to Hugh Howell’s advice-oriented Entrepeneurial Bookselling, from Bookfinder’s and Fine Books and Collections’ respective spin-offs to the eminently readable musings […]
