SUMMARY:  from the estate of a local farmer (..Ferguson-Elgin)who was a rep for Purina back in the late 1920's- 1930. At the dispersal sale quite a bit of material was bought by Don Cosens and this came finally out of the Don Cosens estate.
I literally have hundreds of pamphlets, booklets and books relating to agriculture which I have been accumulating
for quite a few years.
I am a private bookdealer now living back in my hometown of St. Thomas, Ontario. Historically I specialized in Canadian art books and catalogues and my clients included public institutions, private collectors and commercial galleries- however a lot of my interests these days include local history, agriculture, 19th and 20th century cookbooks, ephemera, historical photographs, original art etc.
Elgin County I have found to be an excellent source of really interesting material- and I am working with a couple of local collectors who have collected an amazing amount of really rare and exotic material. Feel free to contact me with interests or want lists- and I can see what I can do to satisfy them.
