Tom Lintern-Mole of Antiquates Ltd. will take you around the fair, judging (and explaining!) books entirely by their covers. In so doing, he will explain something of the progression of binding types and styles around Europe and through the centuries.

This free tour is part of Chelsea Rare Book Fair, one of the most beloved fairs of the rare book calendar. The fair brings together more than 80 exhibitors, with material to suit every interest and budget.
