Most of the rare book dealers that exist are in major cities, most notably New York City. And you can start collecting these books, and the longer you hold on to them and monitor the market that they appeal to, the higher the dollar value will be on these books. Most recently, rare books have been out-performing most every other asset class that are out there. But this is not for the faint of heart. These books that are rare and you can make money by selling them, you need to be well financed to make sure that the books that you buy are going to be able to be resold for a profit.
