Amazing place to do business with. Ted is highly knowledgeable and absolutely a pleasure to work with. I couldnt be happier after our transactions. Fair, honest, completely professional. I would recommend this book dealer to anyone. Definitely one of best book dealers today!

Ted’s network of trusted dealers, experts, and collectors continues to strengthen through ongoing book show / fair schedule, willingness to travel and meet individuals, and timely responsiveness to inquires.
I highly recommend this terrific bookstore. I bought a first edition here that was reasonably priced and quickly shipped with great packing. Fabulous store! Amazing people!
I’m absolutely thrilled with my purchase of Ted Kennedy’s biography signed by Caroline Kennedy. I bought it as a gift and Ted enclosed beautiful gift wrap and expedited shipping so that it would arrive on time for the special event. Ted is an extraordinarily caring book dealer and his customer service is outstanding. I will definitely buy here again. The very best of the best!
Fantastic experience, my first edition copy of U.S. Grant Personal Memoirs was exactly as described, carefully packed, very promptly shipped, and the owner personally addressed all of my questions. A real pleasure to deal with him. A gentleman and a true book lover. Very highly recommended and look forward to the opportunity of buying from The First Edition Rare Books again in the future. THANK YOU AGAIN! Chris
This guy is a very honest and knowledgeable dealer. He seemed happy to help me with a book. He really went out of his way to provide me with honest and reliable information. J. Thornton
What a great selection of only the finest collection of books, ephemera and political history. Ted is a consummate professional and you always get immediate attention from him directly. A+ service!
Disappointed. Despite the description, this is not a bookstore for looking at books. Website did not make this clear at all. Only on the About section of the Google page did it ever mention the need to call in for appointments. Wasted my time and money on parking. Please make it obvious that the store is not open to the public before someone else gets disappointed
I recently visited Ted at First Edition Rare Books in Cinci. It was a great experience. The website is well done and gives you a great idea of what Ted has available. Upon my arrival he was able to pull everything I was looking for. (Everything from Winston Churchill to Eleanor Roosevelt) But most importantly, he was very upfront and knowledgeable about his product and was able to answer all of my questions. But just going through his library that he has there it is truly incredible the type of books and documents that he has in relation to specifically History and Government. The best part is if he doesnt have what you want, he is able to find it for you. If you find yourself in Cinci and are a fan of rare books, I highly recommend making an appointment with Ted at First Edition Rare Books.
The First Edition has a wide selection of important and rare signatures. It is the perfect place to look for one of a kind gifts and rare presidential materials. The staff is knowledgeable and well versed on both rare books and autographs.
Buying from Ted was easy and he was extremely helpful. There was a great selection and he was very quick to answer my questions. Id highly recommend him if youre looking for something unique.
This place was a pleasure to work with - Knowledgeable, fast shipping, quick response to questions. Not much more you can ask for! I will definitely be a repeat customer. The book I purchased is such a treasure, and Im excited to share it with my family and friends!
The team at the First Edition Rare Books has amazing insights on historical books and a wealth of knowledge. I am extremely happy with the conversations and transactions involved with the business. Great selection of books and professional people to work with.
The First Edition was easy to work with and has an impressive inventory of books. Ted was quick to respond and shipping was fast and easy. Ill definitely buy from them again in the future.
Utmost professionalism. Both courteous, and knowledgeable. Find your next treasured acquisition here.
My father collects rare books and I was looking for a gift, something unique to add to his collection. They were really helpful, and I recommend working with them.
Splendid merchandise, and a pleasant, prompt, & entirely professional transaction.
Nice place. Tough to find parking, but glad I scheduled a time to stop by.
