Grant National Historic Site, University of Pennsylvania, University of Southern Mississippi, University of Texas at San Antonio Libraries, Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan, Williams College, and Winterthur Museum. I am always looking for quality historical Americana from the 18th, 19th & 20th centuries and will travel to look at a single item or an entire collection. Please contact me to set up an appointment. I exhibit at antique paper and book fairs throughout the year in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states and at the Baltimore Antique Arms Show every March. I also sell online at Getman's Virtual Book & Paper Fair and on eBay.com.
I live with my wife and daughter in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
