Left Bank Books

Stumbled upon Left Bank Books on Perry Street in Greenwich Village! I love the cozy environment of the bookstore, filled with used, vintage, and rare books in literature, culture, and the arts.

A intimate space for rare book lovers. Have many cool collections. Bookstore owner was super nice. I’m glad such a place exists in nyc.

Wonderful bookstore. Always a really great selection whenever I walk in. I especially find myself very often extremely pleased with the valuable cultural artifacts of Queer literature and arts available.

I visited Left Bank Books for the first time this weekend, as I happened to be in the area, and it did not disappoint. The store has a boutique feel and a very intimate atmosphere. With the guidance and expertise of Erik, I purchased a few first edition Africana texts. Erik went above and beyond by sharing the contact information of an Africana seller they work with. It was an excellent experience from beginning to end. I highly recommend!

This small book store carries a selection of rare and offbeat vintage books at prices from as low as $8 to over $300. There aren't that many books displayed, but what is there is well-curated, and there is probably something to be found for everyone.

Question, I have one first-edition book and another signed copy (30 years old). I was wondering if you would be interested? Who should I contact?

A nice, quaint space. Not a huge selection but if you’re a rare book collector, this place is special!

I have not been into the shop yet, but I had the best experience ordering online. I found three books on their website that were perfect for Christmas gifts, so I ordered and had them shipped to me. They arrived ahead of schedule, and were perfect! The condition for each was exactly as described, and they were beautifully wrapped and protected for shipping. I'm now a big fan of Left Bank Books and I look forward to my next trip to NY so that I can go in and browse in person!
