Selling books.
I have collected books since I was a teenager and more seriously since 1961. I now own over 7,000 rare, scholarly and more common books on subjects that interest me. In 1975 I created T. W. Palmer Books thinking I would need to begin selling some. I did not need to do so then. In 1999 I made the company into a limited partnership with my wife and I owning 1% each as General Partners and our three children owning the rest in equal shares as Limited Partners.
Today I will begin preparations to sell my collection by posting a few items on my next blog. Most books concern the scientific exploration of the American West. I also have many on western American railroads, botany, historical cartography, fine printing (particularly Grabhorn Press and Book Club of California) and Chinese Art, Archaeology and History.
