I visited this wonderful shop looking for the work of a specific artist. Everyone here was so helpful, welcoming and well-informed that we left with two prints: one by the artist we came looking for and another that we happened upon. Prints were packed very efficiently for us to take on our flight and we can’t wait to visit next time we are in New York.
Thank you Stephen for visiting the Old Print Shop and the accolades! We look forward to seeing you on your next visit to New York City - Enjoy : )

My wife and I have frequented The Old Print Shop before our marriage 40 years ago and as I look around our house and my children’s houses they are adorned, or one might say illustrated with imagery from this New York institution. May The Old Print Shop live in forever!
Dear Mr. Sibersack, Thank you for the five stars and the five-star review! It is magical to live in a home filled with interesting objects of beauty and history. We look forward to your next visit!

My fiancé and I stumbled upon this treasure trove of American history, art, maps, and so much on our way back from breakfast nearby. I was offered a tour by one of the members of the family (fourth generation) who works at the shop! Their collections are magnificent and hold very rare pieces that you have to see to believe!
Thank you, Anson, for the five stars and review - The Old Print Shop is lucky to have visitors like you who appreciate our specialty. We look forward to seeing you again!
