  • Hi, I'm Tom Ayling and I'm an antiquarian bookseller. Having been compared to Joe Goldberg more times than I care to mention, I thought it was time to examine just how much he knows about rare books, and look at some of the first editions that appear in You on Netflix.

    Never trust a man who says he has “rare” books in his basement! 🤣 Loved you’re first foray into long format content Tom!! 👏 Can’t wait for more!

      Thanks! I’ve gone book hunting in attics before, but thankfully not many basements 😂

    One would think with budgetary resources this show has, they would have hired a rare/antiquarian book dealer as a consultant, if nothing else for the look of the books.
    Mock-ups would be preferable, I think.

      Absolutely. A lot of films and tv get these details wrong. A notable exception would be the recent Little Women film, which went to great pains to replicate both the book, and the printing and binding processes of the time

    I just realized bc of the cover you showed in this video, that the Oz books I have are all actually first editions! I have only 4 out of the series. They were my grandmother's, the covers are not in great condition but the pages are all good and one says quite clearly copyright 1908 L Frank Baum....that's so cool!

      Holy shit that’s cool,I don’t have any first additions of any books,but I do own a second edition of the first Harry Potter book,I would kill to have something even close to that

    Having been in a real library of rare books, the owner allowed his guests to touch all the books, and assured us all the books were insured.The point was not to hide things away, it was to give access to people that would never have a chance to get so close to such rare history. One of the best evenings of my life.

    I truly have no idea how your video came recommended to me. I think you do a great job! Maybe try experimenting with bokeh/aperture for filming yourself and work to increase the playback quality of the videos. Subscribed and liked.

    While generally cellars or basements are cold and damp those books are obviously stored in a climate controlled room.

    If you’re doing videos about fictional booksellers, would you consider one about The Ninth Gate? It’s not only about a fictional bookseller, but also a fictional book, supposedly co authored by the devil himself.
