LTR VERY BAUBLE. A headline set in the most ornate and detailed version of this new font.

Welcome

This is a list of books I have for sale. Some are duplicates while others are making way for new items I would like to add to over-full bookcases. If you see something you like – great! If not, check back soon as I will continue to add titles. This is not a fully automatic bookshop so interaction is required. Happy reading.

Inquiries.

Bookshop Rules

  • If you're interested in one or more of these books, send me an email. The easiest way to do this is by using the ‘send enquiry’ button.
  • List the titles, order codes and specify where you want them shipped and your EU VAT number if applicable. I will calculate the shipping and make an invoice for the total cost, including VAT for sales shipped within Europe. I will make an effort to be quick, but I'm not a robot. If you have a contract with a shipping company and would prefer to use them please let me know.
  • Alternatively, you (or a friend/associate) can pick the order up in The Hague. This would be by appointment only as there is no physical bookshop.
  • In general the books will be in a reasonable state, but I will note any major damage. These are used books, not bibliophile investments, but the quality is good enough to be of value to a practitioner.
  • Multiple requests for the same title will be handled in the order the emails are received.
  • All sales are final. All payments will be online via Stripe.com
