The Derrydale Press was the preeminent publisher of outdoor books in North America in the first half of the 20th century. Established in 1927 in New York City by Eugene V. Connett, III, Derrydale’s original 169 titles are some of the most collectible sporting books in today’s rare book market.  Connett was a genius at designing and manufacturing spectacularly beautiful books printed on imported rag paper and bound in the finest cloth and leather.

We have recently acquired a number of these tiles, as well as a number of other rare hunting and fishing books.
