Bookseller & Stationer Index
(This page revised August 27, 2017)
If you enjoy vintage pens and their history, then you are no stranger to researching obscure makes or narrowing down time lines or company histories. Having a chronologial directory of your research material makes it easier to trace the information you are seeking without having to wade through the same information over and over. As more and more publications are being digitized, it is becoming much easier to be a history sleuth. We do much of our research though Google Books and the Hathi Trust, and we have produced this index to make your research easier and more enjoyable.
Bookseller & Stationer was a Canadian trade publication. While generally similar to American Stationer and Geyer's Stationer, it contains more information on smaller companies. The volumes we have indexed are from the Thomas Fisher rare book collection, and they were digitized by the University of Toronto.
This index, while it is my own work, was inspired by the indexes of American Stationer and Geyer’s Stationer created by David Nishimura, who in turn was inspired by the work of George Kovalenko. While I was working, I came across a third publication, Bookseller & Stationer, that I found to be equally useful, and I indexed that publication as well. I have since learned that David has Bookseller and Stationer indexed as well.
