	The American Experience. We issued this catalogue in the fall of 2007 and in it we featured an exceptional collection of Americana which included a first edition of The Federalist, one of the earliest printings of the United States Constitution, and a first edition of the journal of the Lewis and Clark expedition, as well as dozens of important milestone printings.  It is an excellent guide to the field.
	Photobooks Catalogue – From the earliest pioneers of the medium—Coburn, Curtis, Stieglitz—to the modern masters—Cartier-Bresson, Doisneau, Avedon, Hosoe, Mapplethorpe—this specialty catalogue describes our inventory of many high spots in photography. The majority of the books are signed or inscribed by the photographer, and many have interesting associations. From the dramatic landscapes depicted in Ansel Adams’ Taos Pueblo to the compelling New York City street scenes captured in Helen Levitt’s A Way of Seeing, this catalogue will intrigue anyone interested in collecting great photobooks.
