Fine Books Magazine...

Fine Books Magazine is exceptional (and pretty much the only game in town if you are seeking a good journal on books and collecting)…but it really is exceptional. Nick Basbanes writes a great column every issue and the other editorial content is first rate as well. It is nice to see someone trying to put out a journal for the “community.” Keep your eye out in the next issue as we are almost certain to have a nice ad in that issue.

Which reminds me, the next issue (Sept/Oct) is going to focus on young collectors (both temporally and in the collecting arch). We also have, on good advice, that they will be announcing a nationwide collegiate collecting competition. I think this is a great idea and could be a great way to draw young people to the obsession.
