I went to the Portland and Seattle rare book shows this past year. Rare book shows are a wonderfully slow thrill. Attendees are almost all senior citizens and there is some awesome stuff to behold. While all the sellers are in business to sell their books each have a love affair with their particular categories of collection. If you enjoy reading and these fairs resume I can’t recommend them enough. In just mild exposure to the stuff I’ve seen, reading the sentencing for the perpetrators feels painfully modest. Given how drug crimes are prosecuted, it seems like these guys got off with barely any impact. It doesn’t seem fair, probably because it isn’t.
