Books & Paper

We specialize in books and ephemera that offer more than just a good read — we look for substance, quality, and collectability. Whether unique nonfiction, finely bound volume, a scarce title on a niche subject, or a signed first edition, we’re interested in unique, uncommon, and well-made books.

Types of Books We’re Looking For:

Non-fiction titles on art, history, science, philosophy, world religions, and other topics
Niche topics: occult, witchcraft, esoterica, metaphysics, and alternative
Illustrated books, especially with woodcuts, engravings, or color plates
Signed copies and author-inscribed editions
Leather-bound, vellum, or decorative cloth bindings
Fine press and private press publications (e.g., Folio Society, Easton Press, Franklin Library, Limited Editions Club)
Out-of-print academic or scholarly works
High-quality publishers known for design and production value
Unique or hand-assembled books, zines, and artist books
Limited editions and box sets
Vintage and antique books in better than average condition
Vintage and antique magazines like 1920's - 1950's Time, early issues of Ebony, Esquire, Vogue, TV Guide, Sports Illustrated, etc.
Ephemera like 1800's 'Wanted' posters, WWII or other war publications, flyers for famous events like Woodstock, circus, movies, music or other

Non-Fiction: History, Religion, Science & More

We buy non-fiction books across a wide range of subjects including history, science, mathematics, weaponry, hunting, training, lessons and hobby, manuals, Disney, and other specialized topics. Older editions, out-of-print titles, and in-depth or illustrated volumes are often of most interest.

Art & Illustration Books

We look for books focused on visual arts—artist monographs, drawing guides, design collections, animation books, and illustrated works. High-quality printing, strong visuals, or unique subject matter can make these especially desirable. Publishers like Taschen, Dark Horse, Disney Editions, Chronicle Books, Fantagraphics, and more.

Fine Bindings & Leather Sets

We’re interested in books with decorative or high-end bindings—leather-bound sets, gilt-edged volumes, and limited press editions. Both full sets and individual volumes in good condition are considered. These include Easton Press, Franklin Library, Folio Society, Arion Press, etc.

Ephemera & Paper

We purchase rare and hard to find paper items like catalogs, brochures, pamphlets, menus, maps, concert handbills and older documents. These are often tied to specific industries, places, or events and can include both personal and promotional material.

Vintage Magazines & Pulps

We buy older magazines with collectible or historic value—early issues, pulp fiction, science and tech, vintage 20's - 40's Time Magazine and similar, and illustrated covers. Titles from the 18th century through mid-1900s are often most sought after.

Rare, Limited & First Editions

We consider many first editions, signed copies, limited printings, and hard-to-find titles. Condition, print run, and author significance all help determine what we’re looking for.
