About meI've been a fan of Robert Benchley, and by natural extension, the Algonquin Roundtable, for over 40 years. I have managed to collect all of Benchley - in first editions - and have all of Thurber and all of Perelman as well. Lots of biographies, and a large of number of rare humor books, that don't deserve their obscurity. Also a shelf of Art Nouveau, my favorite style.
About my libraryOver the years I have acquired many duplicates (and more), if I happened to stumble upon a first edition sitting restlessly on a bookmonger's shelf. If you see that I have more than one copy of something you need to fill a gap in your collection, please feel free to contact me. I'm sure we can find a way to move it from my shelves to yours.
