- In the early 20th century and before books had a huge importance they were often a main source of entertainment for families especially in the evening.
- Despite the benefits of the technological age there is nothing more satisfying to an avid reader than the tactile experience of turning the page of a book.
- Many vintage interior design photographs illustrate that the bookcase was an intrinsic part of any room even including the bedroom.
- Why not get back that simple pleasure of curling up in the evening with a lovely antiquarian or vintage book you have just pulled from your own personal bookshelf and let the worries of the world drift away.
