As Rare Book Hub categorizes material, the field will contribute their ideas often based on their decades long experience. The ideal outcome for Categories is easy enough to envision, a minimum of 40 categories but the mechanics are complex because auction house process and logic, are often unique with a history of sales, and in many cases, with their underlying notes. The same is true for dealers and institutions. We have always been committed to provide the complete story.
Buying and selling has never been as simple as a description and price.
For Americana Exchange and its most recent iteration, Rare Book Hub, the understories make collecting a remarkable experience.
Whatever your role in this glorious field, tell us your story. The field will be better for it.
