Rare Books San Francisco 2025


 I went to Rare Books San Francisco and it was amazing to see what there (All books are first editions)


Signed by Winston Churchill

Sir Isaac Newton-1704

First American Edition




Thomas Paine-1751

Service Book and Instruction for Priests-1764

And they had some other cool stuff as well:


1960's Souper Dress

From 1845



World War I


One thing was that was super cool was a they had a section for local people with their publishing:

Kate Laster

Tomato Bird

And the most valuable thing I saw there will set you back a mere $225,000:


I really enjoyed going to  Rare Books San Francisco. I am always amazed by what I see.

  5. I've got The War of the Worlds on my bookshelf but it's not nearly as old as that one! What a fascinating place to visit.

  6. Looks like a wonderful event!
    $225K for Harry Potter, though, seems a little excessive 😹
