"My father W. Loose started to sell books in 1946. He did not really specialize, but he liked popular literature and folk art which made him acquire almanacs, chapbooks, children's books etc. at an early date.

 

Having helped during my school years, I really started to work in the shop when at last I had passed my final school exam in 1953.

Geography ( travel, topography, maps, and views ) has become another specialization, mainly pre 1880 in the medium price range. I do not make catalogues, so business is restricted to shop and fair sales so far."
