Every book tells at least two stories. At Boris Jardine Rare Books we explore the provenance, historical significance, context and copy-specific detail in each of our books.

 
 

We are always on hand to answer any questions about any of our stock.

We are also actively seeking new acquisitions, especially in the areas of history of computing, and scientific manuscripts, archives and association copies.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us.

 
 

Boris Jardine Rare Books was founded in 2023. Boris Jardine previously sold as Octavo Books, starting on Abebooks in 2006 and specializing in science and technology.

We continue this deep expertise, bringing a ‘material text’ approach to modern literature, antiquarian books, works of art and architecture, photography and artefacts of printing history.
