Happenings

We will exhibit an eclectic selection of antiquarian, rare, collectible, & out-of-print angling, fishing, fly fishing, hunting, shooting, gun, archery and sporting books and ephemera at various hunting & fishing collectibles shows, antique shows and flea markets in Western Pennsylvania in 2024.

Are you looking for a particular book? Send me an email. If the book is available, We'll let you know and bring it to a show for you.

Do you have fishing or hunting books, pamphlets, catalogues, advertising items or ephemera that you want to sell? Just email me the particulars and your contact information. We can arrange to view the items at one of the shows.
