AT LAST GASP WE LOVE BOOKS TOO!

Books are art objects, and whether you are a retailer, gallerist, or simply a collector with a personal library, they should arrive at your door in pristine condition. We pack every order using superior materials and methods perfected through 40 years of experience.

REMEMBER THE EGG-DROP TEST?

Design a package that can protect a raw egg when dropped from the classroom window. The winning formula has two key components: a rigid exterior, and good packing to cushion the blow and keep the egg away from the side walls.

WE USE THE SUPERIOR EGG-DROP FORMULA!

A sturdy double-walled cardboard box protects the outside, while crumpled recyclable paper protects the corners and holds books firmly in place. We double-box all international orders. We protect smaller orders in bubble-mailers surrounded by a cardboard box. Nearly 40 years of shipping experience is behind every order, and our packing is among the best in the industry. Don’t let these fine books arrive at your door in anything less than pristine condition!
