Rebecca Romney - Pawn Stars Specialist on the Nuances of Rare Book Dealing & Collecting
Podcast: Collectors Gene RadioPublished On: Wed Jun 12 2024
Description: You may recognize today’s guest as the rare book specialist, dealer, and collector from the hit show Pawn Stars, Rebecca Romney. Rebecca got started in the world of rare books quite haphazardly when she applied for a managerial position at age 23 for a rare book retailer, and you can pretty much guess what happens next. Rebecca is one of the most respected dealers in the rare book space with her company Type Punch Matrix, and she is the co-founder of the Honey & Wax Book Collecting Prize. She’s sold and handled some of the rarest books in the world, like Shakespeare Folios and first editions of Newton’s Principia Mathematica. We dispel the myths of how books should be handled and chat about the diligent and detailed process of buying and cataloging entire libraries. In such a subjective space, Rebecca has not only made a name for herself, but as a trusted source in the industry who is willing to always point clients in the right direction. So please enjoy, this is Rebecca Romney, for Collectors Gene Radio.Type Punch Matrix - https://www.typepunchmatrix.com/Rebecca's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rebecca.romney/Honey & Wax Prize - https://www.honeyandwaxbooks.com/prize.php
