Books to Sell?

A world-class destination for discerning collectors

We regularly purchase individual books and entire libraries that fall within very specific parameters. Generally, we are looking for first editions of famous books in exceptional condition.  The easiest way to get started is to email info@whitmorerarebooks.com a list of the collection, including the following information for each book:

• Author
• Title
• Publisher
• Place
• Year
• First Edition (Yes or No)
• Dust Jacket (Yes or No)
• Signed by the Author (Yes or No)


Please also let us know where the collection is located and how it was acquired.

In some cases, it can be too time-consuming to type out a full inventory of a collection.  We can also get started with images of books on the shelves, so that our specialists can get a sense for the types of books in the library.

If we request additional images of a specific book we would like to see the following:

Dust jacket laid out.

Dust jacket flaps and verso.

Binding shot.

Text block and top-stain.

Front end papers.

Title page.

Copyright page.

Rear end papers.
