This month we review two new bookseller catalogues. Jonathan A. Hill Bookseller has issued their Catalogue 250. It includes many Japanese and Asian works as usual, but also expands into various other areas they don't often cover. Bjarne Tokerud Bookseller offers a selection of items related to China in the 19th and 20th centuries from the collection of the late Barry Griblin of Vancouver.
