“We are very lucky to have this kind of fair… it’s not elitist, it’s not specialist, you don’t have to be a scholar, you just have to be someone with an immense thirst for the glory of books.”

– Stephen Fry, actor, writer and book collector

This year marks the 65th edition of one of the most popular and prestigious rare book fairs in the world.

The UK’s premier rare book fair returns to Saatchi Gallery with over one hundred international dealers in antique, rare and second-hand books for sale. Explore three floors of books, prints, ephemera and memorabilia to discover from centuries of page-turners. Bag yourself a treasure or simply enjoy a visit to see landmark titles and a stunning diversity of design.
