Established 1982. Bookselling since 1969.
Since
2005 I have operated from a home office and warehouse space. As well as
working on collection development with long-term private and
institutional customers, in recent years I have increasingly advised on
negotiation for sale or purchase of manuscript and specialist
collections. Areas of interest include, twentieth century autograph and
literary manuscript; author and publisher archives; theatre materials
documenting writing and performance on the Australian stage; personal
papers;
small press materials; artists books. Emphasis in my inventory is
toward published materials of Australian art (gallery ephemera to
monograph and survey); Australian small press poetry; the fugitive
printings of cultural and political moments and movements; unique items
published and unpublished with focus on first appearance or association.
