Sometimes I like to search second-hand bookshops for novels I've relished -- then click "first edition".

My birthday's in August, if anyone's keen.

Collector discovered Isaac Newton’s lost personal copy of Opticks - Ars Technica apple.news/AjOgNZIM2QjKkC8jvJj

Newton’s Book is a fantastic find. Hope it’s translated into several languages so others can learn how this unique mind functioned and learn from it.

Charlottesville: Any suggestions for where one can sell old books, including a Webster's dictionary (1877) and three bibles (all 1800s).

Let's just stop the photoshoot for a second to admire the beauty of this old book. Old print makes each page such a joy to look at.
This is a play, "A Cure for the Heart-Ache", a Comedy in Five acts. Printed in 1797. I like to think of all the people who have been holding this book before me, and what kind of room the book has been living in.

I bought this old book from 1928 entirely because it was called "Ladies in Hades" & had some spiffy illustrations 😂
Here are some of them- hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Working on my 2023 resolutions which include restarting my antiquarian book selling activities and finding more gorgeous 18th century German prayer books.

I love old books, especially if you can see the previous owner's name or someone has made remarks in the margins.. It makes me wonder who they were and what they did after they put the book down.
This is my copy of Mayhew's London Labour and London Poor, and the on the first page is just gorgeous. With very odd little people doodled in as well.
