Book lovers, mark your calendars! On Saturday, 8th February, Zardoz Books in Westbury will host a Vintage Bookfair at their new dealership unit on Mill Lane, Hawkeridge, from 11am to 4pm. This event promises to be a haven for enthusiasts of vintage paperbacks, rare finds, and more.
With over 30 years of experience in the book trade, Zardoz Books has built a reputation as a treasure trove for fans of sci-fi and mystery genres, and this event will not disappoint.
Attendees will have the chance to browse thousands of books priced at just £1, alongside a vast stock of used and new books spanning genres like transport, military, and history. For music lovers, there will also be an impressive collection of vinyl records and CDs available.
“Don’t miss this opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich world of vintage books and more,” said Maurice Flanagan, who runs the business with a small dedicated team. “Whether you’re hunting for a rare gem or simply enjoying the nostalgia of leafing through paperbacks, the Vintage Bookfair at Zardoz Books is sure to be of interest.”
The new unit, which opened this summer, represents an exciting evolution for Zardoz Books. Long known for specialising in vintage science fiction and mystery paperbacks, the company has broadened its scope to cater to a wider audience. Whether you’re a dealer or an everyday book enthusiast, the shop’s extensive inventory has something for everyone.
Over the years, Zardoz Books has gained recognition beyond the local community, including being featured in a Channel 4 documentary on internet entrepreneurs. Maurice’s contributions to the literary world also extend to publishing books and magazines about books and hosting the UK Vintage Paperback Fair in London for over two decades.
The unit is located at Unit 4, Mill Lane, Hawkeridge, Westbury, BA13 4LD and is generally open from 10am to 4pm, Monday to Friday. Visitors are advised to confirm hours in advance by emailing zardoz@blueyonder.co.uk or calling/texting 07863 560714.
