“Antiquarian bookseller Simon Beattie specialises in books on European language and culture, sourcing rare and interesting pieces for specialist collectors and libraries all around the world.
“Many dealers’ catalogues follow a generic and traditional formula; produced as ‘listings’ that seem to bypass a key ingredient: the joy of the book.
“The Antiquarian book trade gets a good dusting down with this mould breaking approach to cataloguing, celebrating his discoveries and showcasing “The books you never knew you wanted” in all their eclectic glory.
“The new stationery set draws upon the rich array of eclectic typefaces and colour in Beattie’s books and catalogues. All his correspondence become framed with a variety of decorative quotation marks and provides a contrast to the more ordered address details. ”
