RARE BOOK MOMENT 2.0 -- No. 1: The vocabulary of book collecting

Описание: One of the most important aspects of any specialized endeavor is the vocabulary used by its enthusiasts. This is particularly true in rare book collecting and related areas. In this first episode of Rare Book Moment 2.0, Michael Slicker discusses some of the important terms to know and what they mean.

He also recommends that collectors acquire a copy of ABC For Book Collectors by John Carter & Nicolas Barker. It is a useful and informative tool for anyone pursuing the world of rare and collectible books.

Rare Book Moment is on YouTube and Facebook. Please SUBSCRIBE to our show on your favorite platform, share Rare Book Moment with your book-loving friends. This program is prerecorded.

Rare book appraiser Michael Slicker began Rare Book Moment in 2011 as a way to share his knowledge of rare books with collectors around the world and help them expand their collections.

Michael recorded 28 episodes in that first series, and they are contained in a playlist on the YouTube channel. They were recorded at Lighthouse Books, ABAA, former location on First Avenue N in downtown St. Petersburg.

This new series of Rare Book Moment 2.0 began in 2023. It is recorded at the new location of Lighthouse Books, ABAA in Dade City, Florida.
