A A Milne

Unusual items from the classic childrens author.
Firstly a set of 4 miniature editions of Winnie-the-Pooh stories published in the 1970s. I’m selling these together as it would a shame to split them up. Cute little things.
Also, 2 much larger sheet music books published in the 1920s – 14 Songs from When We Were Very Young and More Very Yong Songs. Good condition – ideal for Milne collectors and sheet music collectors alike.

Cheers,

Mills – A Boon?

Whilst we’re not the greatest lovers of romantic fiction here at Rick’s Book Basement, we cater for all tastes, and so I decided to purchase some Mills and Boon! Not just any old Mills and Boon, but hardback editions from the 1960s and 70s – I bet some of you didn’t even know Mills and Boon published hardbacks. A couple are first editions. They’re on the new ‘Romance’ page.

Cheers,
Rick

Plays and Travel

They’re coming in too fast, the web-site canna take anymore.
I’m struggling to get everything listed before more books come in. Please be patient. I’ve just had some play texts (Pinter, Berkoff), and some travel and language books – including a superb photographic book of Paris, an equally superb book of Amsterdam watercolours and an excellent photographic book called ‘Secret Nature of Cyprus’ (2007) which I can find no trace of on the web either by title, author or ISBN – a mystery!

Antiquarian Purchases

I’ve recently bought a dozen or so mixed antiquarian books, including early 20th century Charles Dickens, and some 50+ year old Enid Blyton, Edgar Wallace and Hammond Innes. Also a couple of old technical books.
Once I’ve had a good look through them, I’ll create new ‘Antiquarian’ pages under Fiction and Non-Fiction. Or maybe a new ‘Antiquarian’ page with Fiction and Non-Fiction sub-pages.

Cheers,
Rick
