October 8, 2019 9:50PM PT New York's rare book dealers discuss what they did for love in a wistful doc made for those who can still look at a book and see a magical object. Its never a surprise to learn that the Internet has upended a business, or an entire industry. But in the lovely and wistful documentary “ The Booksellers, ” we hear one telling illustration of how the online universe has revolutionized the world of vintage books, and its an object lesson so fraught with irony that its a little head-spinning. Imagine that it was, say, the early 90s, and you were a rare-book maven with an impassioned, if not obsessive-compulsive, desire to accumulate a complete collection of the works of Edith Wharton, all in first editions. (Since Edith Wharton happens to be my favorite writer, this example nabbed my attention. How would you do it? Youd go to vintage bookstores, attend auctions, work with a dealer. Youd gather your first editions one by one, over time, and the slow and steady hunt would be part of the pleasure. But in the world of online book selling, where everything is catalogued and digitized, its all potentially a lot simpler. You can still play treasure hunt if youd like, but all you really have to do is say, “Id like to own a first-edition copy of every book Edith Wharton ever wrote, ” and the computer does the searching for you, all at once. To gather this collection, all youd have to be ready to do is to put the total sum on your credit card. In a sense, thats exhilarating. In rare books, as in so many other things, the Internet can reduce the search for the Holy Grail to an instant click-and-score. But with the hunt made borderline irrelevant, youre no longer quite collecting; youre just buying. The thrill may not be gone, but its reduced. And for the vintage book-store owner — the professional bibliophile, the man or woman who knows theyre buying and selling not just old books but sacred artifacts — the impact of Internet commerce has been a slow-motion debacle. The web turns them, more and more, into not-so-necessary middlemen. Of course, what the Internet is also doing is accelerating, rather radically, the erosion of our collective passion for book culture. Its not as if its gone away! But when it comes to feeding the book business as a business, the number of people who spend time reading things between covers is in a rapid state of decline. Yet if the rare-book trade has reached a crucial moment of struggle, “The Booksellers” reveals that its hanging on in novel ways. The present-tense sheen of the 21st century has altered the meaning, and place, of books in our society in ways that can make them seem even more valuable. You might say that vintage books are now like vinyl albums — but in this case, they always were. So for the vintage-book believer, the value of a volume has actually gone up: as totem, as symbol, as artifact of beauty. Its slow fade from the culture only enhances its magic as an object. “The Booksellers” invites us to dote on the tactile mystery of old books — the elegance of the print, the pages that may be fragmenting, the colorful latticework bindings, the back-breaking size of certain old volumes, like the Gutenberg Bible (more or less the first book ever printed, dating back to the mid-1400s) or one giant book we see that contains intricate drawings of fish skeletons. D. W. Young, the director of “The Booksellers, ” is a veteran film editor who leads us into grand and cozy old bookstores like the mysterious museums they are. He roots the movie in New York City (with a few forays to London) since thats where the heart of American literary culture still resides, and he introduces us to a cast of characters who are captivating in their what-I-did-for-love devotion. They all have it; if they didnt, they wouldnt be in the business. Many of the stores go back to the 20s, when 4th Ave., known as book row in Manhattan, had close to 50 bookstores, most of them owned and operated, in the words of Fran Lebowitz, by “dusty Jewish men who would get irritated if you wanted to buy a book. ” That, says Lebowitz, is because theyd gone into the business mostly so they could sit around and read all day. The film takes us inside New Yorks most fabled bookshop, the Argosy Book Store, founded in 1925 by Louis Cohen and now run by his daughters, Judith, Naomi, and Adina, who are in the rare position of being able to keep the dream alive because they own the six-story building that houses the store on E. 59th St. The dance of literary aesthetics and money is addictive. In the 50s and 60s, dust jackets were considered works of art, until they fell out of favor. Now theyre back in fashion, to the point that a first edition of “The Great Gatsby” without a dust jacket is currently worth about 5, 000, whereas with a torn and tattered jacket it would fetch 15, 000, and with a jacket in vintage condition it could go for 150, 000. At the Antiquarian Book Fair held each year at the Park Avenue Armory, we see an original edition of “Don Quixote, ” which is worth 20, 000, and learn that a first edition of the original James Bond novel, “Casino Royale, ” now goes for 150, 000. The comparison to the art market is there in a primal way, even if the book prices are lower (though we do see the auction at which Bill Gates, over the phone, purchased Leonardos Codex Hammer for 28 million) with the cost of a vintage book reflecting the ever-shifting values of the culture. “The Booksellers” finds room for tidbits of history, like a thumbnail sketch of the pioneering book maven A. S. Rosenbach, as well as a portrait of the seminal dealer-collectors Leona Rostenberg and Madeleine B. Stern, who had to fight to make their mark in a demimonde of tweedy men. (For years, they were scandalously denied membership in the Grolier Club. Rostenberg and Stern became legendary, uncovering Louisa May Alcotts hidden pseudonym as an author of pulp novels, and opening the doors for the contemporary women dealers we meet, like Rebecca Romney, who became a regular on “Pawn Stars, ” spreading the gospel of rare-book love with a rare crossover charisma. She emerges as the movies cockeyed optimist of bibliophilia. Theres a happy contradiction at the heart of antiquarian book culture. The passion for books is about the love of reading — the rhythm of it, the meditative space of it, which increasingly stands as a 19th-century counterpulse to the amped heartbeat of the 21st century. But “The Booksellers” is also about the kind of people who relish vintage books as fetish objects. Those of us who love old books know that feeling. Yet its not just about owning; that gorgeous rare volume incarnates the concrete mysticism of the reading experience. “The Booksellers” is a documentary for anyone who can still look at a book and see a dream, a magic teleportation device, an object that contains the world.

D. W. Youngs elegant and entertaining documentary, executive produced by Parker Posey, is a lively tour of New Yorks book world, past and present, from the Park Avenue Armorys annual Antiquarian Book Fair, where original editions can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars; to the Strand and Argosy book stores, still standing against all odds; to the beautifully crammed apartments of collectors and buyers. The film features a litany of special guests, including Fran Lebowitz, Susan Orlean, Gay Talese, and a community of dedicated book dealers who strongly believe in the wonder of the object and the everlasting importance of whats inside. Variety Magazine NY writes: Yet if the rare-book trade has reached a crucial moment of struggle, “The Booksellers” reveals that its hanging on in novel ways. The present-tense sheen of the 21st century has altered the meaning, and place, of books in our society in ways that can make them seem even more valuable.

Sisters Adina Cohen, Judith Lowry and Naomi Hample, owners of the Argosy Book Store, at the store on East 59th Street in Manhattan, in "The Booksellers. directed by D. Young New York Daily News writes: Director D. Young did more than take a picture of antiquarian book dealers, he made an entire film about the subject. “The Booksellers, ” which debuts at the New York Film Festival on Monday, captures a field “in huge upheaval, ” Young said. “Certainly theres a sense among the older booksellers that its the end of an era. ” While most individual antiquarian book dealers in America are based in New York, they are less visible as the citys physical landscape has changed. “The bookstores are almost all gone now, except for a few like Argosy and Bauman and The Strand, ” Young explained. The book fair at the Park Avenue Armory, which is a framework for his film, remains perhaps the industrys preeminent event. “I used to love walking around New York and going into these bookstores and browsing — they really were part of the citys culture, ” said actress Parker Posey, who was asked to provide narration but signed on as executive producer because she loved the movie. “I watched it and then watched it again. Its thoughtful and filled with real characters. ” Hollywood Reporter writes: We learn that in the 1950s there were 358 bookstores in New York City and that now there are only 79 remaining (it's actually surprising there are still that many. Among the notable used and rare bookstores that have survived are The Strand, opened in 1929 and now the only one left of what used to be dozens of such establishments on 4th Avenue, once dubbed "Book Row. There's also the Argosy Book Store on E. 59th Street, established in 1925 and currently run by the three daughters of the original owner. Tellingly, both of these are family businesses, and their longevity can be ascribed to the fact that the families own the buildings in which their stores are located. The doc fascinatingly delves into the history of book collecting, spotlighting such pioneering figures as legendary British dealer A. S. Rosenbach, whose nickname was "The Napoleon of Books. and researchers Leona Rostenberg and Madeleine B. Stern, who uncovered Louisa May Alcott's pseudonym of A. M. Bernard, which the author of Little Women used when writing pulp romance fiction. Author Fran Lebowitz offers plenty of amusing commentary throughout the film. "You know what they used to call independent bookstores? Bookstores. she jokes, adding, They were all independent. " A wonderful project, not to be missed when screened in your city! A native New Yorker, Dan Wechsler (co-producer) is a rare bookseller (ABAA/ILAB)  publisher and filmmaker.
