Bookseller interviews

Eric Chaim Kline Bookseller

Eric Chaim Kline studied Jewish History and Philosophy and it was the desire to own the books he was reading that taught him how to scout and sell books. Before long, his side activities in the trade helped supplement his income while traveling through Germany researching his doctoral thesis. The book business lured him away from his studies and he established Eric Chaim Kline, Booksellers in 1984. Eric Chaim Kline, Bookseller operates out of Santa Monica, CA, and specializes in Architecture, Art, Bibles, Foreign Language Books, Judaica, Modernism, Olympic Games, and Photography. ABAA Member since 1989. Interviewed by Taylor Bowie on October 10, 2010 at the Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair.
