Alfred Baldwin Raper (8 May 1889 – 30 April 1941) was a British businessman, air force officer and Conservative politician.
Born in London, he was the son of Walter and Maud Raper of Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire. Educated at Merchant Taylor's School and in Brussels, he entered business as a partner in a firm of timber merchants. He travelled widely in connection with his work in Europe and the Middle East. He was a liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Woolmen.
In 1917 he was adopted as prospective parliamentary candidate for the constituency of Bethnal Green North East. He subsequently contested Islington East at the 1918 general election as a Coalition Conservative and was elected to the Commons. He sat as a member of parliament for a single term, and did not contest the next election in 1922.
