Los Angeles Vintage Paperback Collectors Show
THE Place for Book Collectors
100+ Dealer Tables
100,000+ Vintage Paperbacks
Where The Books Are
The show offers more vintage paperbacks in one place than anywhere else in the world. One day only.
There are so many paperbacks, that no one is able to see them all in one day. Even with a crowd of other collectors around, it is possible to discover a hidden gem late in the afternoon.
Each year there are great finds reported by folks who attend the show.
This year, you could be the person telling the story.
Come to the show early for the table-top shopping of face-up books, then spend the rest of the day diving into the boxes.
Come join the treasure hunt.
Don't Miss It
Circle the date.
Searching thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales and the internet can find a few wins, but their stock is nothing in comparison to the number of books available at this show.
Dealers at the show have been spending the year looking in those other places and are bringing their findings to this show to offer them out.
Get off the internet. Garage sale later. Come to the paperback show. It's an amazing event that happens once a year.
Come see the main event.
Something For Everyone
It's not just vintage paperbacks.
If you collect hardback Science Fiction and Mystery; if you like to search out early Pulps; if you want to get Original Illustration Art, this show is for you.
Dealers offer eye-catching items beyond vintage paperbacks. It's a hobby about the eye appeal of pop items from the late 20th Century.
Consider that many of the dealers are paperback collectors who do not sell at other shows. Their stock of peripheral Pulps and pieces of Original Art are never seen in any other venue. It's fresh stock to look through.
Come see the side show.
