Rare books in hand-made bindings

About the collection

Books that are ever harder to find

Antique books are often kept by the largest Russian and foreign libraries in a single copy. Everyone connected with old books — historians, bibliographers, researchers, collectors — knows how hard it is to reach these rarities.

The collection holds the finest editions published in Russia throughout the 19th century: fiction, but also law, diplomacy, general and military history, history of the special services, sport, geography, art, theatre, ballet, cinema, science, industry, engineering, religion, philosophy and health. Children's literature and periodicals are widely represented.
