Antiquarian Bookseller specialized in Children's and Illustrated Books in all languages, Avant Garde, Artists' Books, German, English and French Books. My journey through the world of books began back in the 1980s with the first ILAB fairs in the United States. By now, I’ve probably attended nearly 500. International fairs are particularly close to my heart, and I’m committed to all the fairs I take part in worldwide – from Stuttgart, Berlin, Paris and Tokyo to Melbourne I have often learnt the hard way that success doesn’t just fall from the sky, and I’ve also learnt what it means to help organise an important, long-established ILAB fair myself. But now I’m here in Australia, exhibiting a small selection of special picture books.
