Washington Antiquarian to Hold 41st Annual Book Fair, 3/4

WASHINGTON -When you think about antique books, do you think about old hardbacks with yellowing pages that you have to blow dust off the cover and are just for collectors and cost way too much? Well, think again because that won't be the case at this year's 41st Annual Washington Antiquarian Book Fair. Exhibitors from around the country will convene, offering both serious collectors and budding enthusiasts rare books, manuscripts, modern first editions, autographs, prints, maps, drawings and other rare finds.

And, over the course of two days, the fair will also host a series of exciting programs including: On-Demand Poetry, created on vintage typewriters by Typewriter Rodeo. In five minutes or less, get an original and personal poem as a keepsake. Many more programs to be announced in 2016.

The Fair allows book lovers to touch, see and evaluate first hand the quality of the exhibitors' offerings. Exhibitors have curated collections in virtually every area of interest imaginable: classic literature, science and medicine, geography, modern first editions, travel, sports, children's and illustrated books and the arts. Whether you're a seasoned book collector looking to complete your collection or the novice visitor, there's truly something for everyone. Buying is accessible as there are a multitude of price points.
