Christmas pop-up bookshops

December 18th, 2012 - The Literary Platform

With all the talk of publishers embracing direct-to-consumer selling this year, we’ve been interested to see lots of Pop-Up Bookshops popping up (sorry) everywhere before Christmas – recently spotted:

Redstone Press Annual Christmas Pop-Up Shop
For fourteen days only shoppers are invited into the world of Redstone Press who will be selling their beautiful and unique books and boxes, old and new, at special prices.
Pick up all our new publications including The Redstone Language Diary 2013, Mexico: Macabre, our best-selling Psychogames, The Redstone Inkblot Test and have the opportunity to shop from our archive. Book lovers can choose from a huge array of out of print publications including many first editions of early Redstone boxes.
They’ll also be selling spectacular prints from Russian Children’s books of the 1930’s and beautiful Rorschach Inkblot prints make perfect Christmas presents, framed or unframed – as well as surprising objects including skulls, Mexican wrestling masks and many other unique Christmas gifts.
Redstone will also be hosting a number of events in the evenings where shoppers can relax and browse (with a glass of something and a mince pie!)
Shop: 201 Portobello Road, London W11 1LU – Open 10am – 8pm
