LARGE ART BOOK COLLECTION
Over the years we have acquired a large collection of art books. These have not been for sale but mainly held for reference purposes. Through time our needs have changed as the business of selling art progressed. We have therefore decided to thin out our book shelves and retain only those books which are related to the peroid in which we deal. By clicking on the button
you will be presented with a list of some 2500 books. Many are rare and most are now out of print. If you see any books that you are interested in we will send you a full catalogue description, including the condition and price: you will also be provided with the methods of payment.
