Hans - I've heard good things about "Sainsbury's" out in/near Camberwell. If their online catalogue is anything to go by, it's a gold-mine of old books.

Also, a very long time ago I was recommended 'Slow Glass' books, somewhere in the Melbourne CBD. I never got around to finding them (and I suspect they are long gone) so we might have lost another source of old books.

Oh, and I also remember the mimeograph machines. It was a real privilege to be given the opportunity to run off copies of things, then stagger back to the classroom in a state of 'not totally connected to reality'.

Regards,
V
