Dealer’s Thesaurus. 6,000 Ways to Describe Books & Historical Paper

Edited by Lynn Vigeant. Published by Maps of Antiquity in Montclair,  
New Jersey, in 1993.

Absolutely exactly what the title says it is: an exhaustive collection  
of phrases (and cliches) taken from veteran dealers catalogs  
describing books and related materials. This made quite a little stir  
in the business when it came out. Beyond that I have nothing whatever  
to say about this; that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Hardcover.  
6x9, 195 pages. Minor soil, spotting on the top edge. $45, plus $3  
shipping.
