Borg Antiquarian

Founded in 1977, we are dealers in rare and fine books, autographs and manuscripts, prints and library art, as well as artifacts and memorabilia. Dr. Borg holds degrees in English from the University of Michigan (BA), Northwestern University (MA, Ph.D.), attended the University of Michigan Law School, and has a major in history. He served as an Army officer during the Vietnam War; has taught at DePaul and Northwestern Universities; and worked as a consultant and appraiser for major corporations, libraries, and the IRS. We have VERY FINE COPIES of books written in English (typically) from the Renaissance through Twentieth century (e.g., Bibles, Shakespeare, Dickens, Darwin, Women of Letters, Modern Firsts, & High Spots). We often stock Exceptional books that are Autographed or Extra-illustrated by the author or illustrator. Similarly, we offer Unique autographs and manuscripts (literary, historic, scientific). We concentrate on modern literature, history, biblical studies, anthropology, the American military, and science. We often have artifacts (American Revolution and Civil War). In addition, we stock Fine Art related to historical or literary subjects (e.g., prints by Audubon; original paintings or studies of Washington, Lafayette, Franklin, and Kosciusko; Lord Byron, Maria Cosway, and Vladimir Nabokov; sketches of or by authors like H.G. Wells, John Dos Passos, and Henry Miller.) We also occasionally list rare, symbolically-rich items suitable for "Cabinets of Curiosities" from prehistoric and classical periods to the present with literary, cultural, mythic or religious associations.
