For all of you bibliophiles out there, here is your opportunity to acquire some additional hard-to-find books for your library. Alan’s latest offering of 733 lots of rare and vintage books is open for bidding now. He always has great material, and, speaking for myself, I personally populated a large part of my library with books acquired from these sales. Session 1 closes on January 4, 2025, at 10:00 AM so it would be a good idea to check out all 733 lots and place your bids early. I have already started my 1715 Fleet-related list. So, good luck!
