Founded by London's iconic Claire de Rouen bookshop owner Lucy Moore and publisher and collector Charles Asprey, the event, now in its second year, will see merchants stocking up their trundle tables with titles like documentarian Dick Jewell's Found Photos and feminist activist Lynda Benglis's infamous, and original, Artforum t-shirts. Bringing together 18 key publishers from around the globe, making a beeline for the best bits will no doubt be a task in itself. To save you the trouble, we asked Moore and ex-model, activist and Claire de Rouen co-owner Lily Cole to share with us what they'll be shoving into their book bags come Friday. FOUND PHOTOS, DICK JEWELL 1981 “A briliant cult book from Dick Jewell – photographer, printmaker and filmmaker, as well as one of the most important raconteurs of the cultural life of 80s London.

The Surrealists' fascination with shapeshifting is updated for the 21st Century – Facsimile II asks whether the Internet is the ultimate platform from which to explore the multiplicity of identity and how it is altered through interaction.” – Lily Cole Bruno Zhu's Facsimile II – a print-on-demand artist bookCourtesy Bruno Zhu ISA GENZKEN 2014 “A very beautiful catalogue for German artist Isa Genzken's exhibition at Museion in Bolzano (2010).

Benglis states the work was 'a study of the objectification of the self, myself in relation to the subject of the pinup'. She funded this artwork by selling T-shirts printed with the same image. This is one of them...” – Lily Cole One of Lynda Benglis's 1974 Artforum T-ShirtsCourtesy Maggs Counterculture ARCHIPELAGO MATTHEW PORTER 2015 “Brooklyn-based photographer Matthew Porter is interested in 'the legacy of the photographic image, and its capacity to reach across history, to make intelligible to us what we already know, or, encountered at the right moment, that which we could not otherwise know.' This is a new monograph of his work, published by MACK.” – Lucy Moore Moore will have copies for sale at her stand Matthew Porter's ArchipelagoCourtesy Claire de Rouen Books WOMEN AGAINST IMPERIALISM, ORIGINAL PLACARD MADE FOR INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY 1988 “An original demo placard bearing a poster printed by radical Marxist feminist group, Women Against Imperialism.

It's the record of a two-year long, 90,000km road trip that Parke made across the Australian continent.
