Purchase History
"The Old World Auctions site is wonderful. First of all, I think it's very attractive, it gives a nice impression of the company behind it: professional, tasteful, informative. Secondly, it's easy to navigate. As you know, I'm the perfect explorer, since I'm not as familiar with these sites as some people. If there's a way to miss something, or misinterpret a prompt or signpost, I'll find a way to do it. Everything was very clear, though. I think the site's terrific." - MM - US

Protecting Your Collection -
Those of us who collect antique maps and prints are attracted to the field for a variety of reasons.
Chief among them is usually the awe inspired by holding a graphic historical record that has
survived hundreds of years. Once the item enters our collection, it's continued survival
becomes our responsibility.
Learn about basic guidelines and preventative measures that will help protect your collection
from the most common types of damage. Marti shares her knowledge gained as a paper conservator
to help you understand the basics of handling, storage, framing and restoration of works of art
