More about this bookseller
Our mission is like being matchmakers for books—except instead of setting up awkward blind dates, we're finding the perfect homes for rare and unique books, ephemera, and manuscripts from the last five centuries, connecting people to our shared past.
We've got a taste for the weird and wonderful, so you never know what you'll stumble upon on our website—maybe it's a murder pamphlet, a circus pitch card, or an early-modern work banning homosexuality.
Black Dog Rare Books was founded in Amersfoort, The Netherlands, in December 2018. It is run by Chantal Germaine Haak and Steven de Joode.
Chantal has a background in psychology and previous experience as a broker. She brings a blend of business savvy and a curious mind to the company, along with a keen eye for the unusual. Oh, and occasionally she does a little dance behind her computer.
Steven holds a BA (Hons.) in German and an MA (Hons.) in Book and Manuscript Studies from the University of Amsterdam. He has worked as a bibliographer at the National Library of the Netherlands, as a cataloguer and dealer at Antiquariaat Forum, and a rare books expert at Catawiki.
Our clients include international libraries, museums, private collectors, and fellow members of the trade; we ship worldwide. We like to keep everyone in the loop with our newsletters, so if you're not already subscribed, be sure to do so and you'll never miss a new arrival again.
