Parker's Books has been a downtown Sarasota mainstay for over 30 years. It offers the largest selection of rare, vintage and antique books in the area. Inside the musty shop are shelves are packed with old volumes of books waiting to be discovered. Parker's is a member of many different book organizations including the Florida Antiquarian Booksellers Association (FABA), the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America (ABAA), and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers (ILAB). Given these impressive credentials, customers can be sure that the selections found within these walls won't be found at a local chain book store. Parker's is always interested in buying old and unique books, which means its inventory is constantly changing and growing, too.
