Bookmen


March 1989.











These are four fine book dealers:
Peter Howard, Serendipity Books - Berkley CA
Frank Scioscia, riverrun books - Hastings on Hudson NY
Chris Stephens, Christopher P. Stephens Bookseller - Hastings on Hudson NY
Oscar Graham, Detering Book Gallery - Houston TX.
These men talked books, compared stories and discussed points. They didn't really want to be interrupted for a snap shot, but indulged me.
Thanks again gentlemen, twenty years later.
