This must be book fair season. Boston has an antiquarian book
fair the next weekend (the 11th-13th, IIRC), and there is another
ephemera-related event on the 12th. A collector friend and I were
lucky enough to get free passes.



The Long Island bookfair is held twice a year, normally pretty close
to the same weekends. I posted it here in case anyone might be
interested, though it will be the first time in at least ten years I
have *not* gone. The new location is not easily accessible from New
York City unless you have a car. I checked Googtle and mta.info, and
both told me it would take at least two hours, maybe 2-1/2 hours each
way by public transportation. That takes a lot of the fun out of it...


Wow! It sounds like they may miss many people who attended in the
past. For your sake, I hope they reconsider the location after
the upcoming event.
