Dublin Book Fair

Housed in the Royal Marine Hotel in Dun Laoghaire, the PBFA Dublin Book Fair offers a wide selection of rare, antiquarian, secondhand books, mss. & ephemera

[Dublin Book Fair @DublinBookFair]

The Dublin Book Fair is on this weekend at the @royalmarine
Lots of old and rare books at a range of prices.

[Tom Lintern-Mole @TomAntiquates]

@liamsims @theUL I’m always amazed by how people both over and under estimate quantities of books.

‘Can you come round and see, I’ve been left a house full of books’ - 24 books is the record low

‘We have one or two books we’d like to sell’ - 2600 is the record high

The @DublinBookFair opens today at 12 at the @royalmarine
Old and rare books to look and and buy, Christmas presents and gifts to be had.

So we heard you like peep shows 👀 This gorgeous glimpse into Les Jardin des Tuileries in the 1830s is a vibrant example of a peepshow book – an accordion-shaped book that creates a sense of depth.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

I somehow missed this & I do this stuff for a living. Please spread far & wide.

[Gordon Brown @GordonBrown]

I’ve seen a confidential document from Lynton Crosby’s lobbying firm which advises Boris Johnson to ride roughshod over every convention and standard of propriety to pack the House of Lords.

I have slight concerns over the new Peppa Pig book... There had better be a twist, that's all I'm saying... #IrishFourLeafClover @PenguinIEBooks @ladybirdbooks
