About Our StorePaul Foster Books.
Established in London, U. K in 1990.History.
After three years of selling books at markets, bookfairs and an indoor stall at an arcade on London's Portobello Road, I opened my first shop in the London riverside suburb of Barnes. The shop was very small and after two years I had outgrown the space. I moved to a much larger shop just along the river in Mortlake, most famous as the finish point for the annual Oxford and Cambridge University Boatrace, in 1995. This move lead to a growth in the whole business. I Joined the Antiquarian Booksellers Association and through the affiliation with ILAB started exhibiting at the Major Antiquarian Bookfairs in America; New York-Boston-San Francisco & Los Angeles. I also began to exhibit at the main ABA London bookfairs in Olympia and Chelsea each year.
Due to major development of the property I vacated the shop in 2006 and since that time have been working from an office at my current address. I still attend bookfairs and have books in managed retail spaces in London. I also issue occasional general postal catalogues featuring a selection of stock from all ages,on many subjects and in all price ranges. |
