The July Issue of the Comet is Announced: Beach Books
The July Comet: Beach Books
By Bruce McKinney
If the subject of the June Comet is the book as object the subject of the July Comet is the book as pure content. In its purest form, stripped of any need to be dressed up, it's the beach book. These are those books that may never see a beach but which, dog-earred, in some cases read many times, get tucked into attache and suit cases or tossed into backseats packed for weekends, weeks, months and summers away. These are the books that sometimes matter a great deal and in other cases are simply great fun.
These are the books we sometimes quote and other times pick up mid-sentence to complete. These books matter. They are the answer to the question "why do we read" and we can not imagine life as complete without them. They are not always inexpensive but are likely to be invaluable. They are the books that get us through.
For dealers who list material on the Americana Exchange a fresh screen will be posted on home pages by June 11th. The new catalogue will be released on July 1st and be searchable for one year. An essay will introduce the catalogue.
Per usual all premium services members are eligible to list up to seven items. There are no commissions. Images are always important. We will email eligible members on June 12th and close the catalogue on June 28th. Links to upload are provided on Member Control Panels via "Contribute Material to the Next Issue of the Comet."
New listing members become eligible for participation as soon as accounts are established. If you have questions contact bmckinney@americanaexchange.com or call 415.823.6678. If we are not available we will reply promptly.
