Stellar Books & Ephemera
 

Happy Spring Everyone!  Our tulips are blooming, and the apricot trees are already setting fruit here in Moab, Utah! Bring on the warmer weather.  Stellar Books & Ephemera had a successful west coast trip in February showing in Pasadena and San Francisco, followed by the Albuquerque Book Fair last week.  While in Albuquerque I had the pleasure to preview a 'massive' photographic collection of New Mexico images circa 1900-1950.  I'll let you know if/when Stellar might handle the collection.

In the meantime, please enjoy this list. It is perhaps the most varied Stellar list to date featuring exploration titles from the middle east, a stunning oil painting from Zuni in 1895, several runs of very scarce California/Nevada mining town newspapers, a scam lottery broadside from a fictitious New Jersey town and a beautiful album filled with 19th century Chinese pith paintings. Plus travel brochures, ephemeral advertisements, a Science Fiction manuscript and more.

Terms available for institutions and reciprocal dealer discounts gladly offered.

Thanks for your time,

 

Andy and Marcee Nettell
