Posted January 8, 2012
This is a list devoted exclusively to ephemeral, paper items pertaining to the sea - hence, "wet paper." We've got some interesting material on offer, including clipper ship sailing cards that were actually sold at the legendary Siegel sale in the 1990s, an early work on diving, an archive including large photograph, circa 1860, of the Constitution, a colored lithograph by Fitz Henry Lane of New Bedford, and some interesting pamphlets, mauscripts, and photographs.
The Fine Print - Books are in Good to Very Good antiquarian condition unless stated otherwise. Ink signatures and bookplates not noted unless they significantly mar the appearance of the book.
Postage - is $5.00 first book, $2.00 each additional book inside U.S. Other orders will be billed at cost. All domestic shipments are insured.
We recommend ordering by email, since queries are processed in the order in which they are received, whereas phone messages may not be picked up immediately if we happen to be out of the office. Orders may be left any time. For a live answer try calling 978 283 5299 between 12 and 5 daily, Mon.-Sat. When leaving a message please give the item numbers you desire and your phone number. No response to a message left on our machine means prior sale.
Payment - We accept MC, Visa, PayPal, check or money order. WE DO NOT RETAIN CREDIT CARD NUMBERS, so if your are paying by MC or Visa you’ll have to provide that information. (Our answering machine at 978 283 5299 is secure.)
We will ship and bill prior customers and institutions. New customers and overseas orders are requested to pay with order in U.S. dollars or upon receipt of a pro forma invoice.
