Nine new catalogues

For April, we review nine new bookseller catalogues. From Jonathan A. Hill Bookseller we have art books and the book arts. The William Reese Company is focused on subjects never featured in their previous 373 catalogues – science and technology. Antiquariat Kainbacher offers albums and archives of original photographs from Africa. Whitmore Rare Books has a selection of fine and classic books to consider. Shapero Rare Books has a collection of books related to exploration and travel.

 

The George S. MacManus Company targets material of Colonial and Revolutionary Americana. Old West Books, of course, features the old American West. Zephyr Used & Rare Books offers archives and books concerning America's “Good Roads” movement and early auto travel. Langston Manor Books has material about the American West, along with other archives, photographs, and items related to social issues.
