| The printing press changed the world like no other invention – it made books and, therefore knowledge, much more accessible. While hard-drives are fast replacing hardbacks, there’s still something special about leafing through a classic first edition. Kay Craddock keeps a vast selection of antiquarian titles which, at any one time, could include a 1930s reprint of Vanity Fair to historical accounts of early Australia. Books date from the 15th to the 20th century and vary considerably in price depending on their condition and significance. Children’s titles are also represented and will make you wish you kept that old copy of Winnie the Pooh. M.PADULA
