And more, you are frequently doing so. I have always firmly believed and am still believing in quality, both in the material and the service one offers. Attending your customers in a fair way and mutual trust are important factors when selling by catalogues. Few customers misused my trust, I hope few customers felt their trust in me unfounded. These principles hold even more for the inter net business, as many starting and inexperienced collectors are finding their way to my web site.
Members guarantee a high standard in their material offered and their service rendered.
I am a generalist, I deal in printed maps of all parts of the world in all price ranges from the 15th till the 19th century. If asked for a speciality, I admit sea-charts. As a young man I was an officer, both in the merchant marine and the Royal Dutch Navy and interest in the sea started my career as an antiquarian. I have seen maps and atlases becoming rapidly rarer and more valuable, in particular the last few years. As I do not cater for the high end of the market only, I find 18th century material in my stock increasing.
