To quote one longtime  ABAA member who exhibits, it's" the best kept secret in bookselling".

While that may be somewhat hyperbolic it's A fun regional show that seems to be bucking the trend and is growing with a good cross section of quality dealers offering something for everyone.

 

Unfortunately in the south we don't have as many small regional shows as  in the NE, and this is pretty much it for the year down this way, so don't let this one pass you by if you're close.

 

Come by my booth and I'll give you a free Corona just for the asking if Gary Austin hasn't drunk them all.
