About Freedman Rare Books
As a child, I was fortunate enough to receive a first edition book signed by a president, and that moment ignited a lifelong passion for rare and unique books. The personal connection to that historical piece sparked a fascination with the stories and histories that books carry within their pages. Since then, my love for rare books has only deepened.
One of the aspects I find most rewarding is the art of restoration. I take great pleasure in breathing new life into dilapidated and under-appreciated books, giving them a second chance to be cherished. Kindly restoring these literary treasures allows me to not only preserve their physical integrity but also to ensure that the stories they hold can be fully appreciated by future generations.
For me, rare book restoration is more than a hobby; it's a commitment to preserving the cultural and historical significance that these books represent. It's about fostering a connection between the past and the present, ensuring that the knowledge and stories encapsulated in these volumes continue to inspire and captivate for years to come.
