2024 SUMMER BOOK, PAPER

& POSTCARD FAIR

 

Sunday, August 11th     10am-4pm

 

Grace Christian School

104 Kocher Drive

Bennington, VT

 

 

 

We are a group of booksellers from all around Vermont and New England, gathering together to bring you our best examples of collectible and rare books, postcards, prints and ephemera. It's like visiting a dozen different bookshops all at once!

There will be plenty of affordable books in addition to the more pricey volumes. You will get to talk to different booksellers, each of whom is very knowledgeable about their particular specialty. Discuss your favorite authors and subjects. Check out some of the beautiful craftsmanship of the older book bindings.

Meet a bookbinder and see how books are bound and repaired.

 

Free Book Appraisals by J. Kevin Graffagnino 1-3pm

 

If you love books, prints, maps, postcards and paper of all kinds, there's no better way to spend a day.
