Hi! I am Terry Stillman and I closed my retail storefront 
bookstore at 1321 Kingsway, Vancouver, B.C. in June, 2002. In all, I have 
been buying and selling books for over thirty-six years. Children's
& Illustrated Books has been a constant specialty. To that I have
added Aviation as a second specialty, concentrating on titles
dealing with WWII, but also carrying some Pioneer and WWI material,
including some technical books. Due to a conversion in Fall, 1999
from a General Bookstore to a Specialty Bookstore I now carry
many fewer types of books. Currently, besides Children's and
Aviation books, I also have representative sections of Art Books,
Military, Naval, Espionage, some Fishing, Golf, and The Rubaiyat of
Omar Khayyam. See the list below. You will find a few illustrated 
catalogues of books for sale on this website, as well as
an expanded list of books for sale at www.biblio.com and
www.abebooks.com, plus I will be randomly selling on www.ebay.com.



POLICY: All prices quoted are in U.S. Dollars. All 
books are subject to prior sale. Shipping charges are extra: in 
Canada, $11.75 for the lst book, $2.75 for each additional book; 
to the U.S., $5.75 for the lst book, $2.50 for each additional 
book; other countries, please inquire. Insur. charges at cost. 
Canadian residents please add 5% GST. Payment may be made with
a personal or business cheque, money order, bank draft, Visa card or 
Master Card. All items are returnable
in same condition within l0 days  of receipt; please advise us
in advance of any returns. Books will be held  for two weeks;
if payment is not received within that time, the books will be
reoffered for sale.

TO BROWSE:

Browse our books at the Biblio Book Matching Site

You also have the option of viewing the same books on the site of Abebooks (see below) but I prefer that you either arrange to purchase the books directly from me or through the Biblio website rather than through Abebooks, for monetary reasons. Any books of mine that you find on either Biblio or Abebooks can be purchased directly from me by cheque, Visa or Master Card. Please mention if this is what you are doing and I will give you a 5% discount off the listed price.
