About My Library & What I Want Acquire

What I Keep/Collect (I try to balance borrowing with buying so my collection is more curated.) 
- Antiques with interesting bindings or details.
- Cosy novels.
- Art reference, guided books, "for pretty pictures" 
- Vintage & antique childrens/fairytale books, especially if color illustrated
(specific publishers: McLoughlin Bros, Blackie & Sons, Lothrop)
- Books about Books
- Vintage mysteries/bibliomysteries.
- Interesting ephemera in a general sense (bookmarks, postcards, letters, newspaper clippings)

- Antique copy of Jane Eyre.
- Antique copy of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
- Full vintage set of the Beatrix Potter stories.
- Any illustrated copies of The Secret Garden.
