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 love old books and I have to say that your shop was my favourite attraction in NYC, and I put it up there along with the MET Opera! I don’t tend to visit NYC very often but I will surely visit the shop next time I go.
