Posted on: July 1st, 2009 | No Comments

Apologies for not posting for a while.  We have been very busy behind the scenes and travelling the country buying new stock.

Amongst the jewels we have located are three wonderful Golden Cockerel Press limited edition T.E Lawrences (Shaw-Ede, Men in Print and Secret Despatches) from just after his death.  These are available for around £250 each.

Even more exciting is the incredibly rare The Diary of T.E. Lawrence (Corvinus Press, 1937) which is in the region of £1500.

Please contact us for further details (including photographs) of these books.

Normal service will be resumed soon.

Terry Taylor – Baron’s Court All Change

Posted on: June 25th, 2009 | No Comments

bcac1stedWe are very keen to find a copy of this British 60’s proto-Mod classic.  It was published at least twice (Hardback 1st Ed. 1961 and Paperback in 1965), but seems to have disappeared off the radar since then.

bcac-pbkDrop us a line if you know of a copy anywhere in any variation, any condition.  Many thanks.

890pp of exhaustive, but still highly readable research.  This is an OUP  paperback first with only minor signs of wear to extremities.
