Join us for this special sale, Thursday morning, February 6th, just prior to the ABAA (Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America) Book Fair in Pasadena, California. The sale will be held at 10:00 am in the Piazza Ballroom of the Pasadena Sheraton, 303 East Cordova Street, just next door to the Pasadena Convention Center and the 53rd California International Antiquarian Book Fair. The first half of the auction will be devoted to books donated by ABAA members to benefit the Antiquarian Booksellers' Benevolent Fund which was established to benefit all booksellers in times of distress. The descriptions of the books are by the donor members, and we have worked with them on setting fair estimates for the wide range of fine material. The second part of the sale will be PBA's offering of Rare Books & Manuscripts. For both parts, there will be our usual full provisions for absentee, phone, and online bidding.
