So, the Hay on Wye Book Fair is over for another year. Despite the heat, the fair was very busy and was successful for us, so many thanks to our customers & friends, old and new!

There is now a break for the summer followed by two fairs in quick succession - Abergavenny on 6 September and York on 12 and 13 September. Abergavenny is being held in the Priory Centre right next to the main car park and is a small(ish) but busy fair and York is the main event in the PBFA calendar with over 100 national and international dealers attending. As usual, we will be issuing a catalogue in late August in advance of the York Fair - we issued a catalogue in advance of the Fair last year and you can see a copy here.

We will be at two fairs during October - the Burton Railway Collectors Fair on Saturday 4 October and the PBFA Oxford Fair on Saturday 18 October. The Burton fair is held in Burton on Trent Town Hall, a delightful venue in the centre of town near the railway station and the Oxford Fair is at Brookes University in Headington with around 75 exhibitors.

Do take a look at our website, you can search our listings by category or keyword. If you would like us to reserve any items and bring them along to an upcoming fair do let us know.

In addition to our attendance at book fairs, we have been concentrating on listing on ABE and eBay the many books & items of ephemera that we have acquired in recent months - click here for our latest acquisitions, here for our eBay current auctions and here for our eBay fixed price listings.

We hope to see you soon but in the meantime good hunting!
