Thanks for recommending that documentary. I is very well made. I don't consdier myself a book collector, but the phenomenon is similar to collecting baseball stuff. Back when I was a student, before the internet had completely changed book buying, I used to scour those New York bookstores for volumes that I wanted/ needed to have. Glad to see the Strand and the Argosy still going strong.
