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.
