SORRY but we are still having technical problems with the search
and browse facilities which is linked to our listing on booksatpbfa. Although a search should produce results, the ordering
process is running extremely slowly and if your patience wears thin please email us at barry.mckay@virgin.net with any queries you may have, or phone us on (INT+) [0] 17683 52282. Many thanks and here's hoping it is fixed soon.

We are also happy
to advise on the conservation, repair or restoration of any books that need tender loving care. We will be happy to suggest
professional binders we feel most suited to meet your needs.

accept most major credit & debit cards and can accept payment by US $ cheque or €uro cash or bank transfer.
