The Rare Book Department
In a room set quite apart from our general stocks are housed the precious jewels of bookdom—thousands of rare volumes, finely bound and extra-illustrated, beautiful books such as collectors love to possess.
Continuously new book treasures are coming in to take the places of those which are going out into private hands. Knowing that the books in this little corner of the book world are usually but one of a kind, book-lovers make a point of dropping in often to assure themselves that nothing desirable slips by them.
We invite you to be our guest at your early convenience—to make use of not only the Rare Book Department, but the whole McClurg store, whether you have any purchase in mind or not.
McClurg’s is more than a book store, it is a public institution.
