ABOUT
Maes Rare Books grew out of a lifelong passion for literature, print culture, and the stories that objects themselves can tell. For years, collecting rare books and iconic posters was just a hobby but it turned into a continuous pursuit of works that capture defining moments in literary, artistic, and cultural history.
What began as a personal collection gradually evolved into discovering exceptional pieces, researching their provenance, and sharing them with fellow collectors.
Opening Maes Rare Books was the natural next step: an opportunity to turn years of enthusiasm and experience into a carefully curated destination for collectors, institutions, and anyone who appreciates the enduring value of original works on paper.
Every item is selected for its authenticity, historical significance, and aesthetic appeal. Whether it is a first edition by a major modern author, a striking vintage concert poster, or an original movie poster, our aim is to offer pieces that inspire, preserve cultural heritage, and deserve a place in your collection.
