Our book buying this year led us to a great library of a few thousand music books, from Abba to Zevon, and lots of Beatles. A gargantuan collection of Modern First editions that took two months to move, one vanful at a time, is now being processed and many smaller collections have entered our bookstream; one notable book: an early signed Leaves of Grass. Plus, Our art annex is stuffed with vintage art (including many already framed) and ready to fill your apartment walls.
