TORONTO ANTIQUARIAN BOOK FAIR
NOVEMBER 4, 5, 6 2022
Back by popular demand! After a two year hiatus we’re excited to announce the Toronto Antiquarian Book Fair will be taking place Friday November 4th-Sunday November 6th at the AGO. Save the date!
Top antiquarian booksellers from across Canada and beyond.
Unfortunately will not be exhibiting this year.
And then Covid hit.
Welcome to the new About Books new website.
We exhibited at the Old Book and Paper Show.
About Books operated a busy open shop in Toronto for 25 years before moving to Owen Sound on the shores of beautiful Georgian Bay. We focus on second hand, out-of-print and antiquarian books in most subjects with an emphasis on Gardening, Natural & Domestic Sciences, and History. We buy books, from single volumes to entire libraries. Appraisals done. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association of Canada.
