To whom it may concern
Quarup Antiquarian Bookstore - Brazil's first bookshop to be
connected to the Internet - is putting up for sale a collection of
rare books on Brazilian literature. These books are owned by a
private collector, and it took him almost 50 years to collect
them. It is a valuable collection because of its rare
bibliographical quality. In this collection, encompassing
representative periods of the Brazilian literature, one will find
first editions, out-of-print editions, special limited editions,
copies inscribed by the authors, and the unique copy of a book
whose edition was discontinued.
Interested parties will receive a catalogue (in Portuguese), with
all the information on the 755 items of the collection. Proposals
to divide the collection are not acceptable. The price of the
collection is US$ 300,000.00 (three hundred thousand dollars).
