Selling Mantova?

If I didn't already have a copy or you were asking less I would snap it up. Someone who doesn't have a copy should be all over that.

If no one is that bright and you want to dicker, think of me. I have cash and I would love a second copy. It would go nicely with my dup of L'Arte.....

Hi Wade,

I will put it to the owner of the book. I'm just the messenger, not the owner, so I don't have the power to haggle over price.

Anyone who is interested in buying books in my collection please email me a list of what you're interested in or call me at 603-493-9650 (EST 10am-10pm). Please note that for most books I will need to get back to you with a price. Bulk deals can be negotiated. I'm willing to sell the whole collection for $8000. I'm much more interested in selling the whole collection to another collector than parting it out. A list of the books in my collection can be found at: http://nadler.us/books.html

Best Regards,

Craig Nadler
