In our current digital age, the art of paper is quickly fading. This Saturday and Sunday you can get back to (beautiful) basics at the Vintage Paper Fair in Golden Gate Park.
At the fair you’ll find vintage postcards, photos, trade cards, stereoviews, photography, labels, brochures, transportation, sports memorabilia, prints and many other types of vintage collectible paper.
You’re also likely to see lots of local history. Vintage postcards like the ones I found below of our own neighborhood are sure to be on display from exhibitors.
If you already own something you think is of value, bring it to the show for a free appraisal from fair organizer Hal Lutsky (ask at the door).
The event is held Saturday from 10-6 and Sunday from 10-4 at the County Fair Building near 9th Avenue and Lincoln in Golden Gate Park. Admission is free both days.
If you can’t make it this week, mark your calendar – the fair will return on May 21 & 22, and Aug 6 & 7.
