Words
of wisdom and inspiration by Paul Feain: "It seems that I have a fascination with the written word and the book and I see that it is important that there are a number of individuals and institutions working on preserving the culture of the written word and the book for future generations. It has been suggested that I must have a regressive gene to allow so much attention to old books to invade my life!" "A collector must be comfortable with his book. He must appreciate the object sitting on his shelf for years. I can enjoy the ownership of a book just be looking at in on the shelf or even by knowing that it sits comfortably on my bookshelf." "Antiquarian books will continue to flourish for the same reason that people have always purchased them. An antiquarian book is an object of beauty and wonderment for many people and this will continue. In fact people will have more space on their shelves for old books because their lives will not be cluttered with the many new books which we now purchase as most of these will not be published in their present format. Many of the new books which will be published in hard copy will be works of art and will be desirable objects. I think that in the long run the e book revolution will lead to more exciting books being published. They will be much better produced, on better paper and more attention will be paid to the illustrations and the bindings as the public will become less price sensitive about these beautiful objects." |
