New Albany in Vintage Postcards
We have news about the much-anticipated new book by David Barksdale and Robyn Sekula, New Albany in Vintage Postcards.
This is the first new book about New Albany since the store opened, and is effectively the only one still in print. Arcadia Publishing is known for these local history books filled with vintage photographs and they've recently launched this line featuring collections of postcards.
David and Robyn have already given us a preview during an event earlier this year, and the excitement is building for readily accessible book about historic New Albany. Jeffersonville and Clarksville had each been featured in Arcadia's Images of America series, and we'd like to help get those two books back in print, too.
But the big news is we've come closer to a confirming release date for New Albany in Vintage Postcards, and it looks like it will be available in May (which coincidentally is Preservation Month in Southern Indiana).
Arcadia does limited print runs and then the books disappear from the shelves. It's my impression that Floyd Countians will snatch up all the copies by the end of May and we'll just have to cross our fingers about a reprint for all those Christmas giving plans. Reserve your copy now by coming by the store or dropping us a line. We'll be turning the sign-up sheet into a confirm and reserve sheet, so be sure to let us know how many copies you want for yourself and how many you want to give as gifts. We'll fill orders until we run out. It sells for $19.99, so order several now.
Don't get caught out on this book the way many of us were on the last several books about New Albany.
