Occasionally rare, frequently scarce, always fine, or is that Fine? Structure, Verses, Agency Books specializes in the fine arts (painting, the decorative arts, photography, sculpture, Jewish art and artists, art history, art movements), but also carries fine antiquarian tomes, works in the French language, Western Americana, poetry, the social sciences, and some modern first editions. We also selectively purchase books and collections thereof. We also offer appraisals and advice about library-building. We also offer a book-of-the-month club, called Once Upon a Tome. Ask about a subscription thereto. Thanks!
