Guide to Collecting Books

1

Collecting signed Books

Book editions signed or inscribed by the author not only make the book more personal and interesting, but increase the value of the book. A signature or inscription makes a book novel and unique, in addition to having an historical context. Such books are commonly sought after by collectors.

2

First Editions

When discussion “first edition” books there can be some technicalities in determining exactly what is a first edition. A first edition book is usually when publishers and book collectors are referring to the first print run of the edition (sometimes called the "first edition, first impression") that has been printed and distributed commercially for the first time.

Choosing Books for your collection
