alternative to brooklyn book festival

Better than BBF?

For lack of a Queens Book Festival to rival the one in Brooklyn, my allegiance is with Printed Matter's NY Art Book Fair, held at MoMA PS1 in Long Island City.  It runs through Sunday and will be open tomorrow from 11 am to 7 pm.

I picked up a few books here and there, had some nibbles from M. Wells Dinette, and wandered for quite awhile. But perhaps my favorite thing was the Paperwork exhibit in Gallery T; the small exhibit presented scrapbooks of a number of artists, including John Evans, Ray Johnson, and Brigid Berlin -- fascinating eye candy for any keeper of notebooks, any accumulator of odds and ends.
