William Shakespeare

 

Shop rare books by William Shakespeare, the iconic English poet and playwright. William Shakespeare (1564-1616), the leading dramatist of the Elizabethan and early Jacobean period, is the most well-known and widely-read author in all of English literature.

Rare books by William Shakespeare come in all shapes and sizes, with something to suit every book collector. While acquiring a First Folio in original condition is a dream for many, given the multi-million-pound price tag, other less expensive options are more readily available.

For those seeking elegant editions of Shakespeare's works, many of the Private Presses of the late 19th and 20th centuries produced handsome editions, including the Nonesuch Press and Officina Bodoni. Shapero Rare Books also specialises in collected editions of Shakespeare, from the 18th century to the 20th century, which come in fine bindings and make a striking addition to any rare book selection or a perfect gift.
