7th annual Satellite Fair during New York Rare Book Week returns to the Church of St. Ignatius

- by Announcement, Rare Book Hub staff

On Friday March 6th and Saturday March 7th,  Marvin Getman brings his New York City Book and Ephemera Fair back to the venue where his first New York fair was held 7 years ago, Wallace Hall at the Church of St. Ignatius, on Park Ave,. at 83rd St.  65 Dealers from all over the country and Canada will join this year’s fair. Again, there will be free shuttle service to the Park Ave Armory and the New York Antiquarian Book Fair.  Fair hours are Friday 9am-5pm and Saturday 8am-4pm.

Dealers and collectors have come to know Getman’s fairs for their great breadth of inventory in all price ranges. It’s not uncommon to see an item at Getman’s fair in the morning only to see it for sale in the Armory the same afternoon. There’s always a large group of dealers waiting for the opening to get the first pick of the merchandise.

For more information and discount tickets, go to the website Bookandpaperfairs.com.  Any dealer looking to participate in one of the few remaining dealer spaces, should contact Marvin Getman at info@bookandpaperfairs.com or call 781-862-4039.
