Introduction & Question

[Mark Nornes]

I've never ordered a used book from Japan (usually buy them while I'm 
there), but I'm pretty sure Isseido in Kanda does this (you can get 
their info on the web). Also, check out Aaron's cinema used book store 
descriptions on the Kinema Club website. They might do it if you asked.

Also, it's worth noting that Iowa and Michigan have fair collections of 
film books and you should be able to get your hands on these books 
through interlibrary loan.  I'm told this applies equally to public 
libraries, although I've never tried it.
