This small book store carries a selection of rare and offbeat vintage books at prices from as low as $8 to over $300. There aren't that many books displayed, but what is there is well-curated, and there is probably something to be found for everyone.

Question, I have one first-edition book and another signed copy (30 years old). I was wondering if you would be interested? Who should I contact?

I found this bookstore through Yelp and decided to give it a look with my boyfriend. The store itself is a cute little walk in however its very small, a single room that isn't much bigger than a kitchen. The book selection is very tiny, this is a store more for collectors rather than book readers. While it wasn't for me, if you're a book collector I can see this place being your niche.

I am really happy to have been in this place. Best part of my NYC trip. The guy definitely is knowledgeable and he is ready to reply your questions about the selection. It was nice to see detailed descriptions attached to the books as well. You can check out the books peacefully and I am sure you will see something for your taste.Will come back next time I am in NYC.

I fortuitously stumbled upon this new Left Bank Books location, tucked into the Victorian brownstones and charming red bricks on storied Perry Street, for the first time recently. My heart broke during my visit because this may be the only shop left in the neighborhood that retains all the flavor of how it used to be when Greenwich Village was indeed a rarefied village in spirit as well as landscape, a peaceful but spellbindingly vibrant oasis within the steely metropolis, where divine sparks of creativity and existential authenticity were palpable on every street. Before Bleecker Street north of Christopher Street resigned to become like Madison Avenue with its too precious fashionista haunts, and crowded coffee shops buzzing with soulful conversation were open through night instead of keeping bankers hours these days and closing at 5 p.m. Before the area became untouchably expensive for the proverbial 99 percent and all but lost its soul. Don't let the compactness of the shop disappoint at first glance, it is a very compelling space rich with transporting literary and other cultural finds by artists mining the depths of their own voices without a care of winning over a demographic to jack up sales. I'm depending on the cyclical nature of history in hoping that the Village will soon return to being a place where inspired creativity instead of rabid real estate development rules the day and many priceless neighborhood shops like this one will thrive again.
