Cambridge Cover

Date Added: 13 Feb 2026

Highlights at Cambridge

A selection of beautiful, esoteric, weird and wonderful books and objects from over 200 years of human history. Items by or about women feature strongly, with personal favourites including a scarce early peepshow of the Thames Tunnel (item 3); a scrap album containing the signature of Emmeline Pankhurst (item 6), a single page from a Crimean Nurse’s diary (item 9), an erotic fore-edge painting contained within a Trinity College prize binding (item 11), an almanack bound for Queen Victoria (item 12), a series of six French resistance transformation cards (item 17), and an ALS from Bernard Montgomery acknowledging the contribution of women to the war effort (item 28).

Firsts cover

Highlights at Firsts 2026

Revolution: the political, the philosophical, and the revolutionary. Important figures feature from all across the globe, from Cuba to France to the USA and everything in between. Highlights include a rare lunar atlas representing some of the last photographs of the moon taken from the earth’s surface, inscribed modern first editions, classics of children’s literature (such as a true first edition of ‘The Gruffalo’), an original manuscript note from Rousseau, Anthony Kenny’s own annotated copies of Wittgenstein’s most important Philosophical works, and an early discussion of extra-terrestrial life. Other works showcase authors who were ‘revolutionary’ in their own fields, such as Sowerby’s English botany, with over 2500 individual handcoloured plates, an extremely limited facsimile of the Kelmscott Chaucer, widely considered to be one of the most beautiful books ever printed, and a carved wooden mulberry box, purportedly made from the wood of a tree William Shakespeare planted with his own hands.

Bath 2026: Return to the City

Fold the Corner’s third of the year, produced in line with the Bath Book Fair. 57 items here aim to promote the diversity and accessibility of the trade for all collectors. There are a series of affordable first and signed editions for as little as £30, while some of the rarer highlights include Paul Pry’s ‘For Your Convenience’, widely regarded as the first queer guide to London, and here found in the exceedingly rare dustwrapper. There are also a series of unique letters featuring writers and important historical figures, among them Donald Campbell, Howard Carter, Joseph Conrad and Robert Graves. Other special items include a very rare set of WWII French playing cards, a pair of commemorative silk napkins celebrating the marriage of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, and several ephemeral items, including rare flick books and notes on women’s suffrage.
