Ben Raeburn (1914–1991) was one of the most perceptive and fiercely independent architects of post-war American letters. As the founder of Horizon Press, he operated at the vital intersection of high Modernism and the emerging avant-garde, fostering a list that was as visually stunning as it was intellectually rigorous. This curated collection, sourced directly from the Raeburn estate, represents the 'working library' of a master editor. It is not merely a gathering of signed volumes, but a living record of the professional and personal bonds that sustained New York’s literary and artistic culture from the 1950s through the late 20th century. While we welcome inquiries for the archive in its entirety, we are also prepared to discuss the transfer of specialized subject-blocks to institutions with specific collection mandates.
