Rocky Mountain
Antique Map Fair 2004
On Saturday, Sept. 18, 2004, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m., the Rocky Mountain Map Society hosted the Fourth Annual Rocky Mountain Antique Map Fair at the Denver Public Library
The Map Fair has an international appeal with a local flavor. We strive for diversity among our dealers, and have many prominent dealers from around the world exhibiting. The Fair is one of the largest assemblages of rare maps ever gathered together in the Western United States. Maps dating from the 1500s to today. Historical treasures. Beautiful examples of the printer's art. A wide variety of cartographic treasures for sale.
The Map Fair is co-hosted by the prestigious Denver Public Library, located in downtown Denver, and home to an outstanding collection of Western maps.
Sneak Peak Preview Party
The Denver Public Library and The Rocky Mountain Map Society co-sponsored a special opportunity for a private viewing with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres of exhibitor's wares on Friday evening.
In addition, a free lecture, "Introduction to Map Collecting" was presented by Wesley A. Brown (a world class map collector)
