Jack Bartfield founded J. N. Bartfield in 1937, when he began trading in books and paintings. In the ensuing years, he eventually developed one of the largest stocks of important colorplate books and fine bindings in New York. Mr. Bartfield was a truly broad bibliophile, stocking fine press books, important Americana, and better books in all fields.

In 1985, Michael Frost, co-owner and nephew of Jack Bartfield, moved the firm across the street to larger, more elegant quarters. Beyond the sets and fine bindings that line Bartfield's shelves, trading continues in rare books of every description
