Rare books
The Quillet Bookshop’s collection of rare books spans from the 16th century to the present day, offering a rich and diverse selection of 30,000 volumes. Systematically organized and clearly classified, the books are easily accessible, allowing you to quickly find what you’re looking for across a wide range of themes. Whether your interest lies in history, maritime topics, travel, literature, science, nature, or many other subjects, there is something to captivate every passion.
These second-hand books are carefully sourced from private collectors all over France, ensuring unexpected and fascinating finds on the shelves. Before being offered for sale, each book is cleaned, dusted, repaired, and polished to give it a second life. Thanks to this complete restoration process, the books look almost new and are in good condition, ready to be rediscovered and enjoyed by new readers.

The Quillet Bookshop stands out for its remarkable collection of comics, encompassing rare vintage editions, contemporary works, graphic novels, American comics, and manga. Whether you’re looking for a complete series or a single volume, every enthusiast is sure to find something to enjoy.

Our Poster Room
