Love your website; first time I have been to it. I have bought books at Argosy for 30+ years from the late Mr. Cohen. Keep up the good work!
I'd like to say thank you very much for this wonderful book! The parcel arrived yesterday in best condition. Thank you also for the very professional processing, especially the customs formalities. I've already browsed through it briefly: a very interesting work in its original, very well preserved condition. Simply wonderful!
