About

THE NOISE LIBRARY is a pop-up book, zine, music, art, and ephemera sale of my personal collection.

I am not a shop trying to capitalize but a personal collector selling their items. Prices are firm and many hours of research has gone into trying to fairly price.

Offers and bulk orders considered.  Contact me or DM me via the Instagram page. New items being added daily.

Used Condition Meanings

Most items are gently used but in Like New condition.  Some items are New as I have purchased multiples in the past.

Each item’s condition with any notes about defects is listed in the Product Description.

New:  The book is in the same immaculate condition as when it was published.  This could be the description for a book that has been kept in a warehouse for years, never shelved, thumbed or even opened yet may still be some years old.

Like New (LN): A Fine book approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp.  FN means Near Fine. The book may have been opened and read, but there are no defects to the book, jacket or pages.

Very Good (VG): Describes a book that shows some small signs of wear – but no tears – on either binding or paper. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Good (G): Describes the average used worn book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Fair: A worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. (which must be noted). Binding, jacket (if any), etc., may also be worn. All defects should be noted.

Poor: Describes a book that is sufficiently worn.  Any missing maps or plates should still be noted. This copy may be soiled, scuffed, stained or spotted and may have loose joints, hinges, pages, etc.

Items have been stored properly in an environment free of smoke and pets.
