Biographical notes:

The Antiquarian bookman began as a feature in Publisher's weekly and became a separate publication in 1948 under the editorship of Sol M. Malkin. R. R. Bowker Co. was the publisher until July 1953 when Malkin became publisher as well as editor. In 1967 the title was changed to AB bookman's weekly. Malkin, assisted by his wife, Mary Ann O'Brien Malkin, ran the magazine until 1974. "AB" was a trade publication used by antiquarian booksellers to locate rare, out-of-print and scarce titles, and served publishers, librarians and collectors. It also featured articles on dealers, news of book sales and book fairs and special topical issues. The last issue was published in December 1999.

From the description of Personal papers, correspondence, and AB Bookman's Weekly business records, ca. 1930-1970. (Grolier Club). WorldCat record id: 677104543
