[Rarebooks] Oak Knoll Fine-Press Book Exhibition

[Oak Knoll Books]

We would like to invite you to attend this year's Oak Knoll Fest, North 
America's largest Fine-Press Book Exhibition!

Oak Knoll Fest is an international celebration of the book arts offering a 
unique adventure for fine book lovers, collectors and those simply wanting 
to learn more about the book arts to intermingle with fine-press book 
traditionalists and artists. Bringing in 40 different fine-presses from 
around the world to exhibit their work, Oak Knoll Fest is the largest 
Fine-Press Exhibition in North America, providing a truly rare opportunity 
for you to come peruse and enjoy the work of the fine-press world.

This year will be our 11th Fest and it is going to be a special one. It 
will be held on Saturday and Sunday, the 2nd and 3rd of October here in New 
Castle, DE. The great thing about this year is that it will be directly 
related to the APHA (American Printing History Association) conference 
taking place on Thursday, Sept. 30 and Friday, Oct. 1, at the University of 
Delaware, just 20 minutes away.

During this year's Oak Knoll Fest, there will be two entertaining and 
thought-provoking panel discussions, stemming from the same theme as the 
APHA Conference theme of Book Illustration. Following is the information 
about these panels:

- Saturday, October 2, 10-11am
