New in stock...

Picture
And... I have done it again! 
Our shelves are absolutely packed full of books - the Arcane Books stock (Arcane Books is what I am calling the pre-loved, vintage and rare book trading side of Arcane Publishing). As all the events we were supposed to attend with Matt ArtPix have been cancelled, we have all our stock safely at home waiting for the online bookshop to open. We've had to postpone this because of the very uncertain climate, but we hope to be able to open a "proper" online shop in 2021 in order to sell all our pre-loved, vintage and rare books as well as our vintage ephemera. 

So we were not going to get any new stock until things are up and running properly again but, of course, as we've started to venture out, we've found some lovely items to add to our shelves (and to Miss Gish's collection...)

Here are the brand new items we've acquired which will be added to the stock shelves! 
We will do more details posting when they are on sale - at an event or in the online shop next year... 
  

First of all, cinema books... This is our biggest section - just because we do love classic cinema and always end of acquiring yet more books about what the French call "the 7th Art"!

If you read Miss Gish's blog posts, you'll know that she has her own collection of illustrated books, children's books and others (she also has an extensive collection of art books and ... cinema books!) 
We have acquired a nice little stash of lovely vintage booklets and small books - some a bit knackered but most full of great illustrations or pictures.
