Our annual "Holiday Bargain List" is now on-line. It comprises an interesting mixture of items from stock and fresh items, mostly on magic and the occult, as well as some from other fields of interest, all discounted from our regular reasonable prices. It is a truly varied list: the oldest book dates from 1576, and the most recent from 2016; with most from the late twentieth century. Prices range from $ 8.00 to $ 2,500.00. There are a number of modern signed limited editions, rare and out-of-print works, and first editions. There will even be a few Aleister Crowley first editions.
