About Ultramarine Books

We offer used, out-of-print, scarce books in the fields of art, photography and maritime interests. Maritime includes seas, ships, sailors and anything having to do with them. We are located near Downtown Brooklyn in the neighborhood of Fort Greene. As additional service to customers we try to stay familiar with the restaurants and other goings-on around here. Just ask. Our shop is open for browsing 24/7 but on-line only. We don't have an open storefront. Who could afford the real estate?
