An extensive, unique selection of rare and first edition books in exceptional condition is available from Renaissance Rare Books & Bindery, Inc.: literary and children’s classics, poetry, manuscripts, and “High-Spot” volumes from authors of celebrity. Upon request we will obtain special volumes for clients, including books from which a favorite film was adapted.

Many volumes have historically risen in value at a consistent pace. An article—by Thomas J. Healey, Senior Fellow at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government and former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury—comparing investments in rare and first edition books with other investment alternatives is available at no cost upon request via the Contact Us page.

Some “investment-grade” volumes may be difficult to locate in an acceptable condition. Our staff is well schooled in methods of locating such volumes—properly researched for edition, printing, issue, and condition.
