Here is the digital archive for the Peek-a-Book Rare Books operation. This page gathers in one location all of the catalogs issued in the course of our business. A specialist in South Asian Americana, counterculture, and alternative religion, the Peek-a-Book operation proceeds by posting occasional catalogs, making direct quotations, and maintains a growing presence on Instagram and the web.
The items shown in the catalogs do not reflect their actual availability, so please inquire about all items of interest, as we maintain a substantial backlog of uncataloged material. We hope that even if none of our inventory enters your collection, our cataloging teaches you something you did not know before.
For the sake of clarity, we direct readers to this: ABAA Glossary of Terms, when curious about the technicalities of our descriptive language. We promise to do our utmost to describe the specifics of our items in as jargon-free language as possible, as well as to provide good-quality photographs of them as seen in the catalog. But, if there are still yet ambiguities, we encourage questioning.
