Thank you Beth, I'm surely it will be a great help! Claudia M.

The Strand (down on 4th Street and 828 Broadway) has a great art section, but because it carries used books you'll need to spend time digging around the piles. Try also Ursus at 981 Madison Avenue (it's on a top floor of a hotel, of which I can't remember the name, but it's around 50th Street. Also, Ther's Acanthus Books, at 48 West 22nd Street, #4, which specializes in antiques, Antiquarian Booksellers International, at Place des Antiquares #48, 125 East 57th Street, Argosy Bookstore at 116 East 59th Street, Hacker Art Books, at 54 West 57th Street, Harmer Johnson Books at 38 East 64th Street specializes in archaeology, Rizzoli at 31 West 57th has more textbooks, and Witterborn Art Books at 1018 Madison Avenue. Hope this helps! Beth Petriello
