Hey emilien, and what‘s about your collection? Would like to see your entire pile of books as well ?

It will be very interesting to see the next posts, with all these shelves full of treasures ?

I don't know how you guys are managing to acquire so many books in this market! Even in my best years, I never collected more than a dozen!

Ya, for me it's been a little right place at right time. Lots and lots of digging. A little help from other collectors. I have been fortunate with a couple of these as the dealers came down to my asking price.

Lots of digging, haggling, waiting, budgeting and spreadsheets, bidding. Help from others. Hits and misses.
