There is a good-looking copy of Südbayern 9 (1860) up for sale on eBay, as well as quite a few other interesting books as well. It almost looks as if the Baedeker market is picking up again, just a little, after having been decidely slow earlier this year. Maybe it is the state of our economies that makes the market turn to memorials of less complicated times...

I do apologise for the lack of posting recently; it's just one of these things. We are busy at work with a new project and I am also helping my wife more with her business (she organises antiques fairs around England), which is very interesting, even though her exhibitor lists don't tend to include antiquarian book-dealers.

Yesterday I visited the Winter Fine Art & Antiques Fair at Kensington Olympia, which was very good and did have some interesting old books, too. A visit is recommended if you are in London before 20 Nov.
