John Howell for Books shall exhibit at the following Book Fairs: 

RareBooksLAX: October 5 and 6, 2019 in Los Angeles, CA 

Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair, October 12 and 13, 2019, in Seattle, WA 

The Los Angeles Printer's Fair, October 19 and 20, 2019, in Los Angeles,
CA 

I still have a few passes for RareBooksLAX and the Seattle shows. I can
supply passes for free admission to either show if you request by phone
or email in the next day or two. 

Below are 4 lists of some of the material that will be offered at these
shows. Please feel free to peruse the lists, and contact me by phone or
email if you see anything you would like to have. 

First up is a list of 94 items from the collection of Michael Hecht.
Michael was a member of the Zamorano Club and collected books signed by
the authors in California History, especially southern California local
hisory, biography, book collecting, book seller memoirs, and more. Books
with inventory numbers beginning with BO118 are Michael's. I have added
a couple of related titles to the list from other sources.
