First and Fine
Rare and Collectable Books
Our Brand New Website
After six years we realised it was time to give our trusty old Internet site an overhaul. Our new site has more features and uses the very latest technology. We hope that you like the new look and features.
Unique Hand Bound Classics
Every now and then we find a gem of a book that needs a rebind. We work with a dedicated team of professionals to produce unique works of art, combining special books with the beautiful binding that they deserve.
We Buy Books Too!
Whether you are looking to refine your collection, or you’re not sure if that old Harry Potter is a first edition, we’re happy to advise. We can buy books into stock or sell them on your behalf. We also offer appraisals and valuations.
Collecting Books
Books, both the stories and the physical objects, can be an obsession for collectors. A quality first edition, ideally signed, is a piece of history. Whether a seasoned collector or just starting out, we have a books for most budgets.
Why you should buy from us
First and Fine was founded in 2016 by Dr Alex Wochnik, a lecturer in political science with a passion for fine books. Seven years on Alex runs the business full time and has worked with major collectors and auction houses.
Our new email options
We haven't previously sent marketing emails to existing customers. A few people have asked if we can let them know about new books, so we are starting a range of opt-in emails to let people know about news and new books.
