We're blowing out a collection of rare mineral exploration publications and our mineralogy library that we've purchased from several major collections. We have books, maps, special reports, and other publications you probably won't find elsewhere. We've decided to have a huge blowout sale and give you an instant 30% discount from our regular price.
Here's the deal-we haven't had time to inventory the pieces, but you can call or e-mail us with your area of interest and we'll see what we can find. We won't have an instant answer, but we'll probably find some things you'll like.
Call (775) 852-8822 or e-mail info@holabirdamericana.com now!
If you'd rather look through the collection for yourself, we'll be taking as much of it as possible to upcoming shows or you can make an appoinment to stop by our Reno office.
Happy reading!
