The First Edition

Hello all,

Far later than I had hoped I have entered the world of antique book buying. My very first purchase was made at Jeremiah Vokes' store in Darlington. Having been open for well over thirty Jeremiah offers a huge range of fiction, specialising in Sherlock Holmes. My first two purchases were; A first edition of W.H Auden's poetry collection Thank You, Fog and a signed first edition of Peter Ackroyd's The Last Testament of Oscar Wilde. Anybody who would like further information with regard to the purchase of these books please get in touch via the blog. I have read a lot of books that have not made the blog in recent weeks; they will soon appear
