Over in Kensington Gore’s Royal Geographical Society, The London Map Fair includes an astronomical highlight to mark the 50th anniversary of the first moonwalk. The map, signed and inscribed by Buzz Aldrin, shows the lunar landing site, and is offered by The Map House for £7500.
Running from June 8-9, the event hosts 40 dealers. Having previously run in mid-June, this fair has made a significant change to its timing, though this brings it more in line with its original dates.
Organiser and exhibitor Tim Bryars says: “The difficulty in renting viable exhibition space in London means that the fairs have drifted apart in recent years, but it is terrific to see them come together again.”
