The 46th Annual Boston International Antiquarian Book Fair will take place over the weekend of November 8-10, 2024. Our premier event is the Collectors' Roundtable, the theme of which will be 'Off the Beaten Track,' on Saturday afternoon at 1:00 pm.
Off the Beaten Track: Many, if not most, collectors happily search among the mountain peaks, focusing on the high points in their chosen area. But some, for various reasons, venture off the well-worn roads, explore lesser-known byways, and even forge new paths through uncharted territory. Join us for the annual Ticknor Society Roundtable and hear collectors tell their stories, why they left the regular paths, what they found along the way, and what it has added to the larger historical narrative in their area of collecting.
The 2024 George and Anna Eliot Ticknor Collecting Prize will also be presented to this year's competition winner at the Roundtable event.
