“One of the best independent publishing houses of niche market title books in the world” – Cinema Retro

Treasures from the Publisher’s Vault

We sometimes find odd copies of out of print books and books that have been signed by the author. Here, we gather a collection of some of these treasures. These treasures are in extremely limited numbers and will be sold on a strictly first come, first served basis. We have tried to price these books below the inflated prices they sell for elsewhere on the internet. These books are the publisher’s own copies and sold as new.
The list below will be updated if and when we find more treasures in our vaults! All prices include postage and packing.
