Whitmore Rare Books was founded in 2010 with the aim of drawing together exceptional first editions of important literary works. Over the past several years, the shop has become a world-class destination for both seasoned collectors as well as those people newly discovering the field. WRB maintains a reputation for rigorous research and integrity, for discriminating taste, and for creating a space where collectors can interact with amazing copies of the books they love.

Our company was born from a passion for great literature and a high regard for the lasting value of first edition books.

We actively seek to purchase first edition books and other rare items in exceptional condition.
