Used Books & Memorabilia
We have added a selection of used books to the website. If you are looking for a particular book and don’t see it, please give us a call at 707-445-4342. We’ll be happy to check the shelves for you!
We have a small selection of vintage memorabilia including booklets from the Ingomar Club (Carson Mansion), the1964-65 Flood, the Humboldt County Centennial, and the dedication of the Humboldt County courthouse. Vintage yearbooks are also available. Please call 707-445-4342 or email bookstore@humboldthistory.org for details and pricing.
Any vintage books that we sell are duplicates and have not been accessioned into the collection. Because we have limited space and other local repositories also have copies, we offer these items for sale in our bookstore. In accordance with ethical standards of the American Association for State and Local History, the Society of American Archivists, and the American Alliance of Museums, HCHS proceeds from such sales are earmarked for acquisitions or direct care of our collections.
If you have used books about Humboldt history that are in good condition and need a new home, please consider donating them to HCHS as an addition to our library, or for resale. This makes history even more available to the public while helping fund an institution that furthers that cause.
