I was going to share this 17th centjry Spanish patent of nobility in a contempotary binding as a little deal today, but it didn't even last 4 minutes lmao.

Mildly spontaneous, but does anyone want a Book of Hours for under 10k? Use of Troyes, Circa 1450. Complete calendar and in 96 leaves. 6000 USD If you always wanted to own one here's the cheapest example on the market you can find right now.

Me, debating what book to buy and sell next.

I've sold plenty of rare books I've waited years on before getting to handle another edition or copy. This 1497 edition of Sebastian Brant's Ship of Fools is one of those, and extra special since its a pirated edition from Augsburg! Also, peep that contemporary wooden binding.

This little 4 leaf gathering seems to contain quite a bit of text from a Roman Missal, but this script is really something tough to place. Is it 12th, 13th, or even 15th century?? Already wrote my theories and spoken to folks, but feel free to chime in if you wanna take a jab.

As I slowly work on the major catalog, one handful of material particularly catches my eye, being a selection of predominantly 14th century Medieval manuscript letters... on laid paper!!

Been a while since ive had one of the early copies of Dante in the shop, here's a nice 1564 copy with nearly 100 woodcuts, newly arrived!

If i had a nickel for every velvet bound missal i saved for my next catalog, id have two. Which isn't a lot, but a weird coincidence all the same!

Massive catalogs are one thing, but trying to buy a house has given me one whopper of a headache! Anyways, to remind me of the passage of time fittingly is this first edition English Ambroise Pare that just arrived.

For reasons of "buying a house is an expensive and stressful proces", yours truly will not be exhibiting at the Montreal Antiquarian Book Fair anymore.... But hey, i got these 19th century silver coins from India to cheer me up for now.

Quite a few folks have been wondering, what does the next major catalog look like? Well, here's a peek at all the variety I've got in store. Barring a sudden house purchase, expect a late Fall or Early winter release.

Alrighty, here we are today at the Royal Medieval Fair , all set up and ready to go until 6PM EST! Come on by, browse through some books and manuscripts, maybe buy one too!

Brain, what kind of books should I buy today? Brain: ANCIENT ROMAN COINS AND A HOARD OF MEDIEVAL ENGLISH SILVER Hrmmmm.....you're the boss!!
