David Brass Rare Books

Your Account | Cart

I have been in the rare and antiquarian book business for over forty years; my family has been in the rare books business since 1876. Rare books are in my blood.

I specialize in buying and selling only the finest copies of the finest rare books in the world.

Meticulous scholarship, ethical conduct, fair dealing, and the highest level of discreet, personal service are our core values from which we shall never waver.
