First editions, rare, illustrated and fine press books by the world’s greatest authors.

Shopping from outside the UK and want to pay import charges upfront?

Buy from us via eBay, our marketplace site. This way, you will be able to pay all postage, taxes and import charges upfront at check-out. However, please note the eBay estimations tend to be higher than what your courier would normally charge, delivery often takes longer, and our items' prices are slightly higher in order to reflect the fees that eBay charge us. If you visit our eBay shop and cannot find the edition you are looking for, please feel free to write to us and let us know which; we'll do our best to help.
