Rare book sale at Adventure Ctre will feature old guidebooks

Post by squamish climber » Tue Aug 23, 2011 7:35 am

This Friday and Saturday (August 26&27) David Ellis, a rare book seller will be displaying and selling some of his guidebook and mountaineering literature collection. In an email, he said that he has old guidebooks on Squamish and some guides by Dick Culbert, old ACC journals as well as guidebooks for most other parts of BC. He also said that he has many boxes of mountaineering and adventure books both old and new.

Has anybody bought a book from him before?

I've bought from him before, a few things. Also sold him some stuff. He's been around for years. IMHO his prices in the past tended to be higher than the condition warranted, but I haven't seen a list for him for some years, so that may or may not still be true.
