News from UKBookWorld for ukbookworld(a)pigsonthewing.org.uk UNIQUE AND RARE BOOKS YOU DIDN'T KNOW EXISTED The UK Rarity Shop, based in York, specializes in unique or genuinely rare books, albums, historical documents and related items from the early 1800s through to the mid-1900s. Many of these items appear for sale so infrequently that you could never see another. These are one-off opportunities which are unlikely to come your way again. Overall there's an emphasis on British industrial, trade, social, regional and local history. The website also has selections of unusual and rare WW2 military books, maps and documents including both German and Allied Forces intelligence material. For example, shortly arriving on the UK Rarity Shop website are An 1839 Dallowgill School, Ripon, pupil's manuscript copybook; An 1932 Lewis's department store, Leeds, opening ceremony photograph album; and The two large scale 1940 ww2 German bombing/invasion town plans of Preston, Lancashire, and other English towns GET ADVANCE INFORMATION As you're registered with UKBookWorld, you can be one of the first to learn of these and other new opportunities from The UK Rarity Shop as they come along by subscribing to their special once a week Monday afternoon email alert service at http://general.uniqueorrare.com/ukrarityshop-subscribe.htm From there you can also see all the unique or rare items currently on their website.
