Why Collect Rare & Ancient Books?
As you hold in your hands the first edition of any great book, you hold a part of its history: that moment when it was first presented to the world, new and original, without commentary or judgment. In that book you hold, there is an echo of all of the trials it has survived, from intentional destruction through censorship to the more mundane years of handling and simple neglect. A rare book collector knows that story and appreciates all of the book’s struggles and successes. |
