Rare books make very special gifts, as they are physical ties to our history and culture. By giving someone a first edition of their favorite author, or a work that has changed the world, you link them to something truly exceptional.

It’s a profound experience to hold an early edition and touch pages that have been turned for hundreds of years. If you’ve read a thousand books, you’ve lived a thousand lives. But rare book collectors will still tell you that nothing quite measures up to owning a piece of literary history. Come to our store to indulge in our unique selection of rare books, including:
