Use the Browse Categories link on the menu bar to see the catalogs representing our inventory. Click on a category and a list of subcategories on that subject will appear. Click on any of these subcategories and our listings will show up. You may have to scan down the page to see some of the subcategory lists. This is an excellent way to locate only those items that are of particular interest to you.  
  
We are always interested in working with collectors, archives, museums, libraries, and other collections to enhance their holdings. On request, we will quote items that may be of interest prior to listing them. This usually represents a savings to our customers, since we do not have to invest time and money in on-line listing.   
  
Our holdings are far more extensive than is represented on-line. We are particularly keen on ephemera of cultural history interest, including maps, photographs, significant post cards, advertising, brochures, pamphlets, magazines, etc. Please contact us if you have general or specific needs.  
  
**ABOUT US**  
The Prints & The Paper is a modest, mostly home-based business. It is run, in fact, by ye cataloger, Lee (spousal unit Gary maintains he is the 'fetcher and toter' of the team). My catalog entries often include some wry commentary and humble personal opinions, which some folks find amusing and no doubt others think annoying. Take a look at some of them and judge for yourself!  
  
We're a bit quirky, but never stuffy or elitist. Your questions, queries, and orders will be answered in a prompt, friendly, and courteous manner. E-mail inquiries are easiest for us to deal with, but hey -- do what works for you. We are adamant in preserving the ethics and standards of the traditional bookselling trade. Our packing is superior and our shipping is prompt. Our greatest asset is our customers and we try to provide the very best in personal and professional customer service.
