Antiques Furniture Hotspur Robin Kern Nicholas Goodison

Hotspur: Eighty Years of Antiques Dealing distills the remarkable story of one of Britain’s most respected dealerships, told by Nicholas Goodison and Robin Kern. Their first-hand account charts how Hotspur shaped taste and scholarship across furniture, works of art and quirky collectibles from 1930 onward.

This limited-edition hardcover is one of a strictly numbered run, stamped by hand and now scarce on the secondary market. Beyond its reference value for antiques professionals, the book doubles as a lively social history of the trade, packed with archive photographs, dealer anecdotes and connoisseur tips that collectors crave.

The copy offered is in very good, unread condition: pages are crisp, corners sharp, binding tight, and no previous-owner marks beyond the edition number itself. It comes from a smoke-free home and will slip safely onto any shelf of art-reference or modern-contemporary titles.

Whether you follow antique furniture, auction lore or simply enjoy insider memoirs, Hotspur delivers a warm, authoritative tour through eight decades of changing tastes and landmark sales. Secure this numbered copy while it lasts.
