Romy Rey (1938–2020) collected thousands of seasoned and modern non-fiction books on her favourite subjects like Art, Handicrafts, History and Travel, as well as on ethnology and culture from Africa, Asia, Australia, Indian America, Indian Subcontinent, Pre-Columbia, and Oceania.
Romy came across these books as a bookseller for 35 years, and later when, she continued her passion for reading and book dealing with friends and associates from near and far. Her vast book collection was sold from 2022 to 2023.
