AioloZ
was founded in 1985 as we started
selling books at small markets and
fairs in Holland, Belgium and
France. The next year we opened our
shop in the historic centre of
Leiden and began issuing catalogues.
Our passion for literature and art
was immediately recognized
by a wide range of collectors
who made it
possible to sell and buy
not only the usual second-hand books
but also the finest and rarest in
the fields we subsequently explored:
(Dutch) literature, (Avant garde)
art and photography.

The
purchase of the author’s own copy
of the most legendary Dutch novel of
the 20th century for a
then unprecedented price (Gerard
Reve’s De Avonden, 1947) was the
first in a long and ongoing series
of acquisitions that raised the
attention of the media, very unusual
for the trade. It became one of the
side-ambitions of our firm and still
remains a very strong conviction: in
order to survive in a changing world
antiquarians shouldn’t just be
happy with their remote little
corner in society (cum libello in
angulo), selling books only to
their kindred spirits (as those are
all very mortal), but turn our
splendid profession into one of the
visible pillars of culture, asking
for the same attention as new books,
theatre a. s. o.
|

In
the last fifteen years AioloZ was
frequently in the news with
antiquarian manifestations and the
discovery of ephemeral publications
and autographs and established a
firm reputation as a pearl diver.
Among the acquisitions that raised
the attention, we mention: an
unknown juvenile poetical manuscript
by Gerrit Komrij, several debuts
published on one’s own (Reve,
Hermans, Komrij), a pristine copy
of the Kelmscott Chaucer in pigskin
binding, the only complete
collection of the Gogmagog Press,
the author’s first copy, important
correspondences and manuscripts by
Couperus, Slauerhoff, Reve, Büch,
Hermans, Kouwenaar, Vestdijk, Roland
Holst, Kosinski and Thelen.
