Union Square and Co offers well-designed, affordable editions that appeal to collectors seeking attractive, durable books without the high price tag of premium publishers. Their emphasis on classic literature, combined with thoughtful design elements like cloth bindings and decorative accents, gives these books a collectible quality while remaining accessible to a broad audience. The publisher rebranded in 2022 from Sterling Publishing, a subsidiary of Barnes & Noble that published many of B&N Collectible Classics series. They may not feature the premium materials or unique artistic details that appeal to more dedicated collectors, and their larger print runs can reduce exclusivity and long-term value for those focused on investment, but they offer an accessible and beautifully designed option for readers who appreciate quality without the high cost.
