Books Wanted
We are currently buying select first edition literature, signed & limited editions, leather bindings, and fine sets of books. Please visit the "We Buy Books" link above for more details.
Antiquarian Leather:
We are always interested in fine leatherbound sets and individual leather bindings. We especially like attractively gilt decorated volumes.
Unless the book is exceptionally rare, we are very particular about condition and usually will not be interested in books with broken, cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged bindings.
Feel free to sent us a note and a photo of any books or sets you may wish to sell.
Modern Leather:
Although we prefer antiquarian leather bindings, we do purchase modern leather bindings as well. Easton Press and Franklin Press issued hundreds of titles and we are always interested in collections of these.
Some titles are more common than others, and our interest in these may vary from book to book.
Limited Editions:
We are very interested in most signed and limited edition books. Some presses like The Limited Editions Club [LEC], Arion Press,Trianon Press, specialized in issuing well designed limited edition books. We are almost always interested in these in very good or better condition
Many other publishers have issued limited edition books signed by the author or illustrator. Please feel free to quote any you may have.
First Editions:
We are always very interested in first edition literature from iconic authors. Good condition and presence of original dust jackets is of the utmost importance with these books
