I'M STILL HERE!

Welcome to the home page of Acorn Books in MI.  I closed the storefront at 15 Mile & Ryan in Sterling Heights in August, 2006 after fifteen years.  Now, I just deal on-line and by appointment. I still buy books selectively and will come out to your house if you live in the Detroit area and I'm interested in your books.  At this point, I mainly look for collections (many books on a narrow subject), collectible books and antiquarian books. I'm also interested in collections of paper (ephemera, pamphlets, old catalogs, programs, menus, select magazines, older newspapers, etc.).

ROYAL OAK FLEA MARKET

I am currently selling at the Royal Oak Antique & Collectible Flea Market to reduce the inventory I have in storage units (mostly books under $12 at bargain prices) and also to highlight recent acquisitions (collectible books at reasonable prices).  Come out and visit me.  I am scheduled to display there on the following dates:
