The smell of an old book is called "bibliosmia." It’s the scent of paper, glue, and time. You either love it or you hate it, but for collectors, the fragrance lets us know we're in the right place. #rarebooks #antiquarianbooks

Provenance. Transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. This humble New Testament has its own story to tell. It was a gift from prominent American lawyer, Clarence Darrow, to his client, Nathan Leopold, Jr., inscribed by Darrow, “To Nathan Leopold Jr. from a friend. ‘God help you.'” #rarebooks

On a recent cross-country adventure, we were walking around in Memphis one morning looking for a place to get some coffee, and by happy accident, we stumbled upon the Lorraine Motel. Standing there, reflecting on then versus now, we felt the importance of all that MLK worked to achieve. #mlkday
