I am a rare book dealer in NYC and wanted to show that rare book collecting is not a sport for the rich. While there are extraordinary treasures that can be found at astronomical prices, I dug out as examples 5 VERY affordable treasures- 5 amazing books priced at only $50/each. This is not a sales video and 100% of any actual sales benefit the ABAA Antiquarian Booksellers’ Benevolent Fund – which helps the very worthy cause of booksellers in time of need. So, if you want to see how you can start exploring the world of rare books on a budget or just love rare books, please check out the video.
