Welcome to Maggs Bros. Ltd.

There are two motives for reading a book: one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it. Bertrand Russell

Maggs Bros Ltd has been dealing in rare books and manuscripts since 1853. Our staff is organized into nine different departments, each offering a different expertise.

We are based in a fine Georgian townhouse in London’s Berkeley Square, and from there run an international business, travelling frequently throughout the world to buy, to sell and to advise.
