How do I find exclusive, special and limited edition books? Advice from a long-time collector.
Introduction
Once you’ve started building up an an interesting book collection, you’re bound to start noticing special editions on other peoples shelves. Where do people find these gems, you wonder? Maybe they talk about getting them through exclusive (albeit expensive) book clubs like Illumicrate or FairyLoot, or maybe they are investing in beautiful (although yet again, expensive) publishers like Folio Society or Easton Press.
But what if you want some of these special editions for your own book collection – books with sprayed edges, beautiful designs, limited editions – without the sort of serious financial commitment of a subscription or fine press edition – how can you get them? Well, I’m glad you asked, because I’m here to help!
About this list
I update this page every week or two with upcoming preorders and recent releases of special edition books that anyone can purchase – and you can even frequently get a preorder discount if you’re early enough to buy. Feel free to bookmark and visit regularly to see what’s new, or subscribe for the occasional email update!
Details are based on publisher notices and may change before publication. Recent special editions remain on this page for a few months, while older editions are archived to make the page length more manageable. However, many of these earlier titles are still available (and desirable!), so it’s definitely worth taking a look through the archives as well. The bottom of this page has some suggestions for bookshops and subscription boxes that create their own special editions where you may be able to purchase individual titles, as well as a list of artists that create custom stencilled edges. Enjoy!
Please feel free to send me details of any books you think should be added to the list ツ
