Yes, incredibly, we are nearing the end of the year already and the final Tynemouth Second Hand and Antiquarian Book Fair will be held as usual on Sunday 21st October, 10am-4pm on the platform of Tynemouth station.

The October fair is usually bustling and as always, there’s a really relaxed and fun atmosphere. The true bibliophile tends to arrive before 10 to snap up some of the older, more rare books and maps.

Bring along photos of any paper items or book text blocks you are concerned about or just stop and say hello!

Although not yet confirmed, I’m usually on stall number 1, near the stairs. Hope to see you there.
