perhaps the world's largest inventory of Limited Editions Club books, from their
beginning in 1929 to their much more limited and often large-format recent
offerings. In addition to what is listed among our new arrivals, we have about
300 other LECs cataogued on our website as well as half that number yet to be
catalogued: http://www.erols.com/agvent (to see them all, type in Limited
Editions Club under the Any Word category on our search engine). Future monthly
catalogues will feature strong collections of Tennessee Williams and Carl
Sandburg, Hand-colored Ornithology books, a fine Mountaineering collection, and
much more.
