I wish you and Rebecca would start a show where you chase down rare books and then present it all on KZbin.

[@GiftedUplifted]

Does Rebecca have a channel ?

[@joshuayork2231]

@@GiftedUplifted I haven’t seen one. If you do, LMK!

[@billyhale7450]

You have been a great resource to me in my business! I have now been selling rare books full time for more than 8 months and I’m very grateful for creators like you. I look forward to working with you in the future!

[@mariagenitsariou4344]

Since I am a calligrapher in Greek language, constantly in search for rare scriptures, what you are presenting is in my interests and love them!!!

[@bc18651]

I love your content, anything you make I eat it up. Any rare book collector loves your videos long or short. I appreciate your videos greatly.

[@WolfRamAndHart]

I like the long form. I don't agree with KZbin's idiotic algorithm that's trying to do Tiktok. Seems like you're getting up there on subscribers though, to 10K, which should get you a plaque, so hopefully that will allow for more of the long form content pieces.

[@Cyn50983]

They truly are remarkable. Thank you.

[@useupwearout5029]

Long form, short form....doesn't matter. Say what you have to say. Those that enjoy, will follow. I particularly enjoy the deep philosophy mixed with the modern media humor! Please continue to bury smiles within your presentations. The exposure to items most of us will never see is a gift. Thank you.

[@dannyflynn9933]

I feel that rare books are the lifeblood of the academic instinct in man. From the arcane codex of the prehistoric priest, to the underground street scene zines of the 1990's. A rare tome of knowledge, in any format, is a window into the depths of the human experience.

[@weeblewom9513]

Great video. Definitely keep the long-form coming. Love it.

[@cachetucker4097]

I love that you know the stories behind how the books survived, thank you for sharing!

[@haleygibbs3437]

I love the comparison of people and books both being survivors. Thank you for that. ❤

[@pepperroberson57]

I have many older books but how fun to see your rare books! My palms are sweating!

[@schankandbake]

I just recently discovered you and am in awe! My daughter will be studying public history/library science and will, ultimately, be an archivist. I love sharing the information you give us with her!!

[@laurensouthgate2458]

Glad to see you again.

[@mcharlene7787]

I am forwarding this to a person connected with Manoogian Museum in Southfield, MI which reconstructs the history of the Armenian people through the ages. “The museum houses an eclectic collection that spans more than three millennia, bringing coherence to the Armenian people’s history, which is fraught with hardships and glories.”

[@jackl.7236]

I’ve been watching various antiquarian book collectors for several years now and I am extremely interested in creating a collection of my own. I’ve also especially been drawn to books on the occult, older systems of symbology, theology, and science. I truly adore the history of it all.

[@noactuallywerejustgoodfrie1328]

Old book collecting has been a hobby of mine but I've never really known much about the rarity of them. Can't wait to learn more about it!

[@yoestubeaqui]

The acquisition of a profound appreciation for literature, inherited from my father during our residence amidst the verdant expanse of the Venezuelan Amazon, has paved the way for a transformative chapter in my life. Now afforded the privilege of dwelling in this venerable land, replete with repositories of human wisdom, the stewardship of these literary troves assumes a profound significance-an endeavor to safeguard the annals of history for posterity. It is, undeniably, an extraordinary odyssey across the tapestry of time and space.

[@stencilskies]

My goodness, that second binding is just beautiful. Great and interesting summaries. You’ve got another subscriber!

[@dean828]

Very intriguing and fascinating information on 📚📖!

[@nickp.6031]

I really enjoy learning about books from your Instagram posts and now I can follow you here with longer posts that are so intriguing! Thank you!!

[@maxmalatesta]

I was absolutely stunned by the typography and page layout of the 1772 newspaper! I'd love to win that one

[@Jikk12]

It's been my dream since my teens to collect rare/old/odd/esoteric books. Very cool that you get to actually do it! Old books with strange artwork are my favorite. It's like holding a very rare and specific point in history that most humans alive will never get to see. True treasures!

[@jamiewoodard2380]

Incredible pieces of history! It’s truly remarkable to be able to hold such important artifacts in your hands.

[@crabapplez6699]

I love your resources on old historical stuff, makes me want to accrue such a collection in the future!

[@iceblinkmender]

handling antique books is my absolute favorite form of time travel. nothing transports me quite like a fine bit of marginalia.

[@chazross8210]

I’m not new to antiquarian books, but I am new to your KZbin account and I’m excited to have the chance to learn from you and see some amazing rare finds. Thank you for sharing. 🤓

[@CGMacia]

Absolutely fascinating. So excited to find your channel! I love the idea of books as survivors. There are few objects that outlive generations and pass along knowledge. Art and books are my favorite of those! Thanks for creating these videos and preserving these precious pages!

[@rassteyn3547]

You are such a rich vessel of history and you make it sound so easy. Love it. (I could not help but notice your beautiful hands. Thanx for sharing.

[@heejinscloud]

I would love to this this book as a gift to my mom, she absolutely loves reading any type of book.

I just saw your book giveaway on IG, and it said to comment on YT. I did it immediately. Id absolutely love the religious text.. the history is extraordinary. God bless you sir.

[@Bobaphatt555]

I enjoy your postings on Instagram. I’m pleased to have found your KZbin content as well. Happy New Year to you.

[@patrickmclaughlin6924]

Great survivors! You lured me in with the give away, keeping me with this fabulous content

[@zachvlogs9443]

I love old books. Great content on your channel.

[@hoooneeeybeee]

Fascinating video discussion, and for it to be filled with little bits of humor makes it that much better!

[@packratnz]

My mother was a diligent Methodist throughout her life. She died nine years ago and sadly I did not get any of her old religious texts when she died. I have been doing a bit of research into religious hymn writing after getting an antique Bilhorn folding organ and yesterday picked up an old big print Methodist hymn book from 1933 published for Australia and New Zealand where I live. I got it at my local thrift store. While the book is nothing compared to the books you have, it was published not long after my mother was born and adds to the history of New Zealand, which is a young country anyway. I mentioned a bat night light on your instagram giveaway story and seeing your light in this video I think you need to find an antique bat night light to light up your bookshelf!

[@TVG249]

“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.” Thank you for sharing these beautiful work of art and words with us.

[@rarebooksade]

[@tobiasgoodmanson4607]

I’ve recently been going through a very hard time in my life and I’ve found solace in books of antiquity. I’m interested in starting a collection and I’m not sure where to begin. Your content is very refreshing in a world filled with constant change and it’s been a nice escape for me. I messaged you about the price of a book but my current financial situation doesn’t allow me to spend the extra money. So I entered your book giveaway with hopes of starting a collection of books from the 16th and 17th century. I have a small collection of books from the early 60’s that I’ve become very proud of but something about books much older has always been a fascination of mine. Anyway, thank you for your content and I hope you continue creating for a long time to come!

[@Richard1861]

As an antiquarian map collector, how could I not subscribe? What a fascinating channel. Personally I don’t get the voice reference as it’s always struck me as distinguished and of great character! Happy New Year!

[@nemacamma]

Books are inherently precious. Old books especially embody the idea of hope: a wish, that knowledge, important enough to be written or printed and bound so meticulously, would survive to be experienced and appreciated by others. The inherent fragility of the materials, the care and attention to each detail (even the quirky margin doodles of so many illuminated manuscripts), makes it so happening upon one is like witnessing a shooting star or finding a four leaf clover. Coins are nice, but they don't tend to be quite as awesome as old books. Perhaps that's just my bias though.

[@aqui7744]

I can imagine how incredibly it must feel to be able to handle these rare books. Thanks for sharing this with us 🙏

[@davidrader8317]

I definitely like seeing your rare book collections

[@ilikepizza69]

I am a big fan Adam! I watch you on pawn stars and you are my favorite seller on the show. I just thought to look and see if you have your own store or anything, glad to see you are available to the public and have a KZbin page! I enjoy your knowledge and expertise, your wit, and your eye for interesting pieces.

[@RareBookBuyer]

That is kind of you . I do sell next at the NY ABAA book fair in April and send catalogs if people ask at [e-mail]

[@jopez3503]

This makes me want to start collecting books again!

[@BryanStuder-wz3tp]

2024 rare book give away. I subscribed even though I don't have to. I love antique books. Just looking at them leaves me excited. The real treasure though is how they show the steps we have taken as a species in our knowledge. It's so amazing to watch your videos and dream of the hidden gems you have.

[@tommerrill6435]

Thank you for sharing all the Cool book information! And your FB give Aways !

[@joelspeerstra3921]

Oh Alcatius is my favorite author ever. I suppose I am too late for the competion but I have been dreaming about owning an original for twenty years…

[@AndrewMarin1]

Long time subscriber! I collect old Bibles, Torahs, Qurans, and any other religious books I can find from the 1700s and 1800s! I’m American but lived in remote Scotland for almost a decade and would always find the most unreal (and unwanted!) religious books hundreds of years old at random antique shops in random villages. I would buy them for a mere few £ each find, each time my mind blown no one wanted them. It brings great pride to know I’m helping preserve history. I also make sure to read every word of every book I find. There is unending treasure and wisdom in the books from ages ago! Thanks for always putting out this important content!

[@thedangerkatt]

Fascinating! Love it! 🙌🙌🙌

[@user-w8jhtre23]

Nice to see some slavic and eastern books, they are bigger survivors than those from the west.
