Nestled in the heart of downtown Johannesburg, Collector’s Treasury is more than just a bookstore — it’s a living archive of literary, historical, and cultural treasures. Founded in the 1970s by the Klass family, we have grown into the largest used and rare bookstore in the Southern Hemisphere, with eight floors of books, maps, prints, vinyl records, and collectables stacked floor to ceiling.
Our vast, labyrinthine space is a haven for bibliophiles, historians, researchers, and curious wanderers alike. Whether you're looking for rare first editions, Africana, out-of-print titles, or quirky ephemera, chances are you'll find it somewhere among our estimated over one million items.
Whether you visit in person or shop online, we invite you to get lost in the stacks and discover something truly unexpected.
