About Tree Frog Fine Books and Graphic Arts
We owned and operated The Looking Glass Bookstore in downtown Portland, Oregon for thirty years. Our citations on this site are the accumulation of first editions, small press, galleys, letter press, comics and comix, and other interesting books and ephemera that we set aside over those years.
