An independent bookseller in Reno, Nevada

Nevada Fine Books exists for collectors who want the details right — accurate descriptions, honest condition grading, and books packaged with the same care I’d want if I were the one receiving them.

The Guarantee

Every book I sell is guaranteed original and authentic, and described to the best of my ability using established trade standards of grading and research. If you’re not satisfied with a purchase for any reason, I accept returns within 30 days of the date of purchase — refunds are issued once the book is returned in the same condition it was shipped.

Packaging & Shipping

Few things are more frustrating than a rare book arriving in a flimsy mailer. I take packaging seriously and use premium, archival-grade materials on every shipment — acid-free tissue, a moisture barrier, new white foam, new cardboard, and a thermal bubble barrier to guard against temperature extremes in transit. Your book should arrive in exactly the condition it was photographed in.

What I Carry

My primary focus is Western Americana, with particular depth in Nevada, California, and Utah material. Beyond that I deal broadly in American antiquarian first editions — fine bindings, early Americana, and important feminist, radical, and historical material. I occasionally handle family archives, maps, and ephemera as well.

Why Independent

Nevada Fine Books runs on its own platform rather than a marketplace. Staying independent keeps overhead low, and I pass those savings on through fair pricing rather than folding them into listing fees. I aim to be a good steward of this trade — accurate descriptions, ample photographs, reliable shipping, and fair prices, book by book.

I hope you’ll stop by often to see what’s new. If you have a question about a listing, books to sell, or a title you’d like me to keep an eye out for, my contact info is in the footer below.
