Brattlecast #97 - How to Look at Books

Brattlecast: A Firsthand Look at Secondhand Books - En podcast af Brattle Book Shop

What do you look for when you’re looking at books? In response to this question from an antiques dealer who finds books to be something of a pain in the... past, Ken details the Brattle’s time-tested methods for determining, over the phone, which libraries might be of special interest to collectors. Of course no books are really a pain in the buns: some may be rare and valuable but the rest are still great reading material that’s heavy to move, frequently dusty, and emotionally difficult for people to part with. Learn what to look for on this very specific #brattlecast.
