Old Capitol Books is fortunate to obtain approximately 100 beautiful architecture books from the personal library of a local modernist architect Jerrold Lomax, FAIA. Although Mr. Lomax is no longer with us his outstanding works and library can still be seen and experienced. Most of the books purchased from his library represent the modernist genre.

Book Buying
Due to an excess of supply of books (and the subsequent lack of space), Old Capitol Books will only be purchasing the following book genres: local history, classic literature, military history, modern art, some young adult literature, sci-fi, and the esoteric in most genres. We offer cash and will continue to accept these books for trade-in/store credit. Feel free to contact us for more information.
