Collection of Collectors
An Open Your Book series
What is a book support without a book? And what is a book without the person who chose it? An evolving record of the collectors we meet and the books they open with us.
Marcel Duchamp
We begin our Collector Series with a small ledger on lined accountant's paper. Marcel Duchamp pasted photographs of his own work and labeled each one in his own hand. Michael DiRuggiero of The Manhattan Rare Book Company calls it deeply personal — like being admitted to Duchamp's inner circle. Vol. 01 of Open Your Book.
