Beautiful high quality book
Format: Hardcover
This book is just what I wanted. It is very high quality: heavy paper, book sleeve, many photos. The book is about the museum: its development, architecture, design, configuration and exhibits.

Great Experience !
Format: Hardcover
Received this book as it was described - in new condition! I ordered the book the American way (at the last moment and OMG I need this tomorrow for a gift mode - LOL) and this seller was sooooooo accomodating. Before he had written consent that I would pay extra for postage, he had mailed it. Of course i paid a little extra - well worth it- thank you sooooo much!
The book was a huge surprise for the person I gifted it to and so thank you again for allowing me to give it to her on her special day!
I would do business with them again!
