ABAA membership is a privilege extended only to those booksellers who have demonstrated the highest levels of professionalism, ethics, and expertise in the trade. Our more than four hundred members hail from an impressively diverse array of backgrounds. Some have spent their entire careers in the book business, while others have been lighthouse keepers, poets, helicopter pilots, and professional musicians. Some members own brick-and-mortar shops, some operate internet-only businesses from their home or office, some fashion livelihoods from exhibiting at book fairs. Many combine these retail strategies, or add services such as appraising and collection development. A few earn additional income and professional prestige from research and writing. But all our members share an appreciation for the printed page and for the scholarly and ethical practices which exemplify professional bookselling. ...

Bookseller interviews

Eric Chaim Kline Bookseller

Eric Chaim Kline studied Jewish History and Philosophy and it was the desire to own the books he was reading that taught him how to scout and sell books. Before long, his side activities in the trade helped supplement his income while traveling through Germany researching his doctoral thesis. The book business lured him away from his studies and he established Eric Chaim Kline, Booksellers in 1984. Eric Chaim Kline, Bookseller operates out of Santa Monica, CA, and specializes in Architecture, Art, Bibles, Foreign Language Books, Judaica, Modernism, Olympic Games, and Photography. ABAA Member since 1989. Interviewed by Taylor Bowie on October 10, 2010 at the Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair.
