The Chelsea fair has become a fixture in the November calendar for book collectors and dealers from Britain, Europe and America. Warmer than Boston, more intimate than York, less formal than Paris Chelsea has it all. Most of our exhibitors come back year after year, and thats because sales continue to increase, and the customers return, again and again.
