Dear Argosy -- The Childhood of an Equestrian arrived today. I order a lot of books and wanted to say your packaging is excellent. You would not believe how much plastic tape many book dealers choose to use. The box you sent, and the book wrapped in paper with no tape, were far nicer. The signed book and addressed letter are excellent, too. Thanks for the book.

I received my book by Frans Masereel in the mail this afternoon. I couldn't be more delighted. It's in excellent condition, and your shipping and customer service were first rate. This was my first experience purchasing a rare book online -- thanks for making it a good one.
