NEW YORK, NY.- The ABAA New York International Antiquarian Book Fair – officially sanctioned by Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association of America and International League of Antiquarian Booksellers and produced and managed by Sanford L. Smith + Associates – returns to the Park Avenue Armory in New York City from April 27th-30th, 2023 for its 63rd Edition.

The NYIABF is a cultural pillar of New York and returns as a much-anticipated highlight of the busy Spring season. Universally referred to as the world’s finest antiquarian book fair, NYIABF is excited to reveal nearly 200 exhibitors this year from around the world, continuing to live up to its reputation as a highly international fair. The fair has attracted a diverse audience of literary luminaries, influencers, celebrities, art, design and book enthusiasts and collectors both seasoned and entry level. In recent years, NYIABF has increasingly captured the attention of young collectors seeking one-of-a-kind offerings at more accessible price points. Prices range from $50 to millions.

This year, the fair welcomes exhibitors from 16 different countries including Argentina, Austria, Bel- gium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and United Kingdom. An impressive number of US exhibitors also high- light the incredible wealth of material available stateside. Exhibitors will present a vast treasure trove of items: rare books, maps, illuminated manuscripts, incunabula, fine bindings, illustrations, historical docu- ments, prints and print ephemera.

Fair highlights encompass art, science, medicine, literature, history, gastronomy, fashion, first editions, Americana, philosophy, children’s books and much more. From the historic and academic, the religious and spiritual – to the bedrock of secular culture, finance, politics – the fair boasts offerings in every conceiv- able genre and subject.

Several of the 2023 exhibitors have participated in the NYIABF since its inception, attesting to the fair’s longevity and relevance to its dealers and audiences. However, the fair continues to attract new antiquarian booksellers as it evolves, welcoming 11 new exhibitors this year including: Capitol Hill Books; Editio Altera; Kate Mitas, Bookseller; Kunsthandel Mitmannsgruber; Langdon Manor Books, LLC; Librairie Paul Jammes; Librairie Pierre-Adrien YVINEC; Marc Selvaggio, Books & Ephemera; Sandra L. Hoekstra Bookseller; Thorn Books and W.C. Baker Rare Books and Ephemera.
