Tim Bryars - Cecil Court

Tim BryarsTim Bryars opened his antiquarian book and map shop in Summer 2004, returning to street level after some years spent admiring the tops of peoples' heads from a fourth floor office at Oxford Circus and communicating with the world electronically. Traditional ground-floor bookshops like ours allow for browsing and face-to-face discussion, and the chance to examine original material at first hand – all valuable opportunities which we would encourage customers to take up whenever possible.

We specialise in rare and antiquarian books, maps and prints, particularly atlases and original antique maps of all parts of the world printed circa 1500-1900, a golden age of discovery and decorative map-making; we always carry a selection of separately issued and folding maps. We also sell early printed books, classical texts and translations, history, literature and travels, and offer a range of antique topographical and natural history prints. The price range is enormous, anything from £30-£30,000 (determined by rarity, condition and desirability), but please note that in all cases we offer original material and do not deal with facsimiles or reproductions.
