In the late 1940s, my grandfather Anton Düssel held his first small book and graphic auction in Düsseldorf.
The graphic arts antiquarian bookshop at Gendarmenmarkt, which had a long tradition of being run jointly after the death of Karl Düssel, no longer exists as a joint shop between the three brothers.

My father Karl Düssel started in the antiquarian bookshop business in Berlin in the early 1980s and over time built up a good reputation from a flea market dealer and “Kudamm antiquarian” to his renowned antiquarian bookshop at the Gendarmenmarkt.
