There are 15 new bookseller catalogues up for review this month, many focused on interesting niches. There are outstanding collections of maps offered by DanielCrouchRareBooks and HighRidgeBooks.RestorationBooks is presenting Part II of the collection of William Boeing, the renown aircraft and airline builder whose name is synonymous with large airplanes. Actually, his interests went far beyond planes. BetweenTheCoversRareBooks has a selection of “firsts,” including first editions and other types of “firsts.”
TheVeatchsArtsoftheBook has a catalogue of alphabets for adults. BruceMcKittrickRareBooks focuses on the Rules. Sotheran's offers a collection of private press works. The WilliamReeseCompany has a selection of books made rare because copies were “destroyed by fire,” or suppressed or destroyed by some other means. For those looking to travel back in time, HelenKahn&Associates offers books printed before 1700. If instead, you would like to travel sideways, LorneBair has a selection of books that will take you, politically speaking, to the left. And, if instead, you just want to travel, there are books on voyages and travel available from MaggsBros.
GarrettScott,Bookseller, has another collection of odd and unusual works. Strange would be another apt description. PlazaBooks features books about Mexico and the American Southwest.AntiquariatBanzhaf has a collection of early photography, while SimonBeattie is focused on manuscripts.
