Based in the Washington D.C. area, Brian Cassidy Bookseller deals broadly in 20th century popular culture and avant garde print materials: books, posters, manuscripts, ephemera, and the like. Specialties include artists' books, literature and poetry, little magazine and the mimeo revolution, punk, outsider and vernacular books, photography, and archival materials. We are located in downtown Silver Spring MD and welcome visitors by appointment. We actively buy books, from single titles to entire libraries.
